lopburi3 Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 The normal time for application is during the last 30 days of your permitted to stay so it should be later than next week to be sure they will accept. And the most important factor is having the wife with you - nobody seems to have picked up on your not mentioning that. Also be sure those passport photos are not the same as in your passport if it is more than six months old. They want new photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mxyzptlk Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 (edited) I've just received my first marriage extension @ Nakhon Ratchsima Immigration @ Dan Kwien Pottery village. The didn't want the Kor Ror 2. The map I gave them was a google map which was accepted. They only wanted 2 copies of the completed TM7 + photo and one copy of everything else.

skydiver77 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Went to Chang Wattana last week for the marriage extension. You MUST take the Mrs with you. Documents already listed will be required. Make sure you sign all copies. Photos requested were; In front of house with number showing/ Sitting on sofa in living room/ Sitting on bed in bedroom/ Open wardrobe showing his and her clothes. A picture of the happy couple on the job was not required. A Google map was not accepted. But a map I had drawn, with the Mrs writing the directions in Thai, was....We have never been visited in the last 4 years. Of possible interest to any Yanks reading this; After looking at my Embassy letter, the friendly lady officer asked if I had my bank statements. I had. As I withdrew them from my folder. She smiled and said; 'Never mind.' Then went into conversation with the Mrs. Turns out the Yanks don't need proof of income when applying for their Embassy letter. Whatever figure they put down, pops up on their letter. From now on, proof of income will be required at Chang Wattans Imm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terak69 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Would make life easier if replies contained which immigration office they attended as the rules can vary from area to area - (hope this is not considered a closet joke !!!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lite Beer Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Hi guys, 400K for 2 months is still the rule? Thanks. For the first application it is. Many Immigration Offices expect 3 months thereafter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likewise Posted March 20, 2011 Author Share Posted March 20, 2011 Handed in my application 2 weeks ago with above mentioned docs, they also needed somebody (Thai) to guarantee, kinda confirming that you are a good citizen . Krabi has sent the application to Songhkla which is head office for the South. They'll call me when they get the approval to stamp my 1 year visa, should be any day now.

Digitalbanana Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 (edited) Open wardrobe showing his and her clothes. Is this for follow up extensions, as I never had this requirement on my initial extension or is someone seriously taking the piss? My wife and I are somewhat refined and prefer use separate his and hers wardrobes. Is my extended stay in Thai in jeopardy or should I get a new larger wardrobe THREE months before the next extension application is due?

lopburi3 Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Yes it has been requested but does not have to be three months early. As long as photo appears to be the same bedroom should serve the purpose (to help prove you do indeed live together as husband and wife). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comproez Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 I just lost my extension because i did not do my re-entry. So am i considered first time applicant again? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 I would expect so as that would allow a change of status if visa exempt entry and time to have money in account two months prior to application for new extension of stay. But best to confirm with the office you use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themuse1969 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 (edited) Lopburi, I am reading this thread because my visa is "used" and my last extension expires 4/16. Getting our marriage certificate has gone slowly, me waiting for stateside docs, etc. What with the holidays before expiration day, we've got a time crunch, to get my marriage visa in place. Is the TM.7 applicable in my case? If not, the only option I know of would be to go to Vientiane Thai Embassy for a new tourist visa......unless they would give me another ext. stamp. Thanks. I have never exerienced so much bureaucratic entanglement in my life! -Will The thread is about one year extension of stay so the requirements are not the same as for a 60 day extension.

themuse1969 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 What does M.O.F. stand for? Ministry of Finance? I don't think so......Finance isn't involved in these immigration matters, but that's all that came up in my search.... Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
