Is it normal for immigration to require a neighbor come to immigration to confirm your id for first marriage non o. It happened to me yesterday at nonthaburi immigration. I also had to photocopy every single document I gave them, including 2 of the receipt. Is this also normal? 

It varies from office to office. Some want a witness and others do a home visit instead of a witness,

It is normal to need two TM7 forms and 2 sets of the supporting documents for the extension of stay based upon marriage since the application has to be approved at the division level of immigration,

Cheers, they also said they would be paying us a visit

You may not require home visit next time.

Everything you mention above is common. 

 

Yes. All normal for certain offices.

As said, they all differ.

We had to take a witness to the Samui Office 18 years ago.

Normal, home visit with witness present, they only speak to the witness when visiting me, couple photos and done.

Yes, however in OP case immigration want the witness to come to imm office.

No wonder why many married guys opt for extensions retirement.

I personally wouldn't sit well with witness to imm and home visit.
