STM documents required for Marriage visa ext. CW?

[michael888]

Hi, I'm about to go for my first 1 year marriage visa extension at CW.  I've been reading that certain STM type docs are required (in addition to the already researched and acquired plethora of unnecessary paperwork).  Do they supply these additional documents?  Or would it be best to print these out and bring them in already completed?  Any insight appreciated.  Many thanks.

I think they just give these to you to sign when you are there......I don't think there's anything to fill in.....certainly not for the STM.2

There are 4 STM forms required now (STM 2, 9, 10 & 11), they're available to download from immigration website and all need to be filled in and signed.

Should have also mentioned STM 10 (Affidavit of Family Relationship to Thai National) is filled in by your thai wife, this is in addition to her written statement.

Wow.... six years in and I've never (knowingly) filled in any of these forms......until you posted I didn't even know they existed??????

I would bet dollars to durian you signed most of them without having the slightest idea what they were 😮 

They are just handed to you when you're sitting there and you print your name on the top and sign them 😉 

They have been having people sign the notice of overstay, the "terms and conditions" for your extension and the "statement" for quite a few years now both for retirement, marriage and raising kids extensions

Yes...totally agree......I find the whole situation incredibly stressful....piece of paper missing, new requirements, no queuing system where we are, three hour round trip......I could sign my own death warrant and not know....

The required documents are attached below for your convenience; as you will see you don't just print and sign your name.

Thanks but its totally useless to attach such files here   as the resolution is far too low  to be readable let alone printable.

Thanks very much..could you perhaps  have a word with  'someone' 

about getting the resolution of attached images to the forum  back to a sensible level...I have mentioned it in the forum support section but nothing has happened.

The link to thread I posted earlier has OP providing links to each form. 

Thinking when printed out clarity won't be an issue. 

In any event suggest folk just accept these forms at immigration and sign + fill in name first field. 

At CW the doc check girls hand them to you. 

Don't really see the need

If when you say "Don't really see the need" you mean for the forms, I couldn't agree more. If on the otherhand you mean don't see the need to prepare beforehand the reason is it shaves 20 minutes or more off the time spent being in the pleasant enviroment of the immigration office and its charming staff, same reason most people fill out the TM.7 beforehand.

Not suggesting people go unprepared. 

For example it obviously makes sense to fill in forms such as TM7 in advance. 

In fact at CW the ticket issue desk requires you to show filled out form such as TM7, TM8 etc etc depending on why you're there. 

The forms this thread is concerned with are the ones concerning acknowledgement of penalties etc 

I just sign my name and print name at top of form as required. 

Mountain out of a mole hill comes to mind. 

I have even done them while io does her bit of tick tick. 

Takes couple of minutes.

I understand that the STM 10 and 11 were added recently. So they are new for those who have  been doing extensions before.
You need to be aware that the STM 10 form requires a witness. At the bottom right.
In hua hin, i had to get a thai witness who knows me and my wife. Fortunately, somebody we knew was available and could come to immigration fairly quickly. 
I have seen some other posts concerning this, indicating that other people in immigration could be used as a witness. However, if so they may need to be Thai, have a thai ID and house book with them.
It all depends what CW require and you need to check with them.

If other people reading this have done the marriage extension recently in CW with an STM10,
then can you please advise what happened for your STM 10 witness.

The need is to be able to share forms from immigration with other members of this forum..we often see that some immigration offices require their own 'special' forms  and that the official websites are either never updated or impossible to navigate.

Having the ( correct up to date ) forms and filling them in at leisure at home saves a lot of hassle.

 

The low resolution problem effects all parts of Asean Now  not just this particular sub forum...impossible to share technical documents instruction manuals etc.

This is a forum problem  as no mater how clear or large the uploaded scanned document is  they are squished to an unuseable state as  those above from @Cardano  clearly demonstrate.
