Extension renewal

Featured Replies

Today attempted at immigration office,only to find what was good last year is not so good this year...denied. Want more information pension letters from providers,not copies, differing format from last year of 12 month bank statements,  Wise no good,more just head banging time

  Problem I left it too late to do anything about it,2 more days on overstay

 

Thought something amiss when arrived at desk,nobody there,usually busy,according to agent I then had to use,its not yearly changes occurring but daily changes,    scam city.  14 thousand instead of 1900

UK,do transfers with Wise,not acceptable .  Pension letters from actual pension providers.  Was 65000,they now will tell you anything to get you to agent

Exactly as last year,exactly.   They want you to use agent.    Nobody there,empty extension desk

Since you do not have enough time to sort things out you could apply for a 60 day covid 19 extension to get more time to do the extension near the end of the 60 days.

Thanks for the information,but in panic mode.  Taken from one bank to another  800000,placed in Bank,taken to another bank to have it taken out.

 Never had to use an agent before,its a sickener for sure

As suggested by Udon joe , do a two month covid extension. take a step back , 

When making transfers with wise, there is a dropdown window where you chouse reason for transfer. Did you chose the " Long term  living" or something like that? it is the last choice on the bottom of the drop down window. 

Immigration do accept Wise transfers, you have to ensure they are shown as International transfers. Need to check now otherwise you'll have the same problem next year

Exactly that  woman brought in her boss ,was told only bank to bank allowed  no transferwise

Sorry in wrong area and just wanted to check for extension of stay based on retirement and I know the information required from the  passport.
A silly question but going to ask it but forgot does one have to take a copy of all the blank pages in the passport and think not?
But to confirm the front page with photo, current visa stamp a TM6 .
The other financial reguirements of course are in place.
Thanks all

Most immigration offices will only want a copy of the pages with a stamp or sticker for Thailand on it.

Many offices only want a copy of your passport photo page, visa, entry stamp and your most recent extension of stay stamp. And the the TM6 card.

Thanks again Ubonjoe and yes until passport is stamped for new extension, one can never fully relax.

Probably a misunderstanding, thousands of people transfer using Wise to their thai bank account, needs to be processed as International
