willyumiii Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I am new here. I have a Thai wife and a 3 year old daughter. Due my wife's recent illness, I have taken her and my daughter back to Thailand to be close to her family and the Thai medical system. I plan to join them within a few weeks. I know that for me to obtain a Non ) visa, I am required to have 400000bht in a bank account under only my name. I need to open an account under my name and wait 2 month before applying for the non) visa. Questions: Can this account be opened in Thailand or does it need to be in U.S.A.? Can I apply for a visa after returning to Thailand, or must I apply here in the states? Is there any other visa I can get to hold me until I can apply for the non O visa? Also, I am not clear on how to post things like this in the regular forum. Can you give me instructions on how to do so or tell me where I can find out how? Thank you, William Minehan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiG16 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Welcome to the forum everyone Craig - that sounds like an extended beach time As to those with visa questions my suggestion is to have a read of threads within the visa sub forum. If you don't find the answer you are looking for, start a new thread in those sections to ask the question. This thread gets read but not as much as topic specific items. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaMah Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Hi Thaivisa members. I'm a wannabe expat living in southern California. Been reading Thaivisa for a long time trying to learn what I can. Eventually I've realized I can't get all of the anwers by lurking. I'm going to have to ask questions and take the punishment for the stupidity of some of those questions lol. Going to try to keep to a couple of principles: 1) Try at all times to appreciate the positive aspects of Thailand and not dwell needlessly on the negative. 2) Try to respect the membership and treat responses to my questions with gratitude and appreciation. 3) Try to keep in mind that the membership is diverse and international and don't become defensive about my country of origin. Thats about it. Na Mah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azzo1 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Hi, just new to joining but I do read this forum often, Great information here. Been in Phuket for 16 years, wife, kids, and a lot bigger family now. All good, once you get past those bumps in the road .. if you ever do? This keeps me grounded, or not, while I work away from Thailand, which is a good thing once and awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chillihot Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Hello from Australia. Been a member of Pattaya based forums for a few years. Was aware of this site but didn't know what it was all about til I recently joined. First times Thailand late 80's. About me: Single guy late 50's. Been to many parts of the world since the early 70's. Discovered Pattaya 2001 and been a regular visitor since. From reading old stories here, some love Pattaya others hate it. I love it. For me it is the whole entertainment package. ( BTW, I don't have a beerbelly and have plenty of hair. Actually I'm quite scrawny). Planning to retire to Pattaya next year. This very informative forum will give me plenty to research til then. Thank you all. chillihot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
