Non "O Visa To Follow My Non B"

[jst]

hello, i am an american working (teaching) with a work permit. my spouse is not working (also an american). i have a non "b" good for 1 year (just got it 1 wk ago) my spouse is at the end of a tourist visa (april 15, 2011). i want to get an "o" for my spouse and time is of the essence. i have read 2 different sets of instructions regarding this. the bankok imm. office website says, 15days on the spouse's visa + all kinds of doc's on the school certified and stamped. another site says, we only need a marriage cert. my work permit, proof of employment, and the normal copies of passports, etc.

Which is correct? i would love to go to bankok and have it sorted. otherwise i must schedule a loas trip amidst Songkran. does anyone know how to sort this out? thanks for any help!

What did you get one week ago? A visa from a Consulate or an extension of stay from Immigration?

If an extension of stay wife will need a non immigrant O visa and then can extend her stay to match yours. Believe this visa will have to be obtained from a Consulate outside Thailand using your extension of stay stamp and marriage proof but you can ask immigration if they will do a conversion first.
