ubonjoe Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Nothing new there. As has been said on this forum many times you can pay the overstay fine on departure without a problem. Only if you get caught you will have problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thanyaburi Mac Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Looks like the OP signed a repayment agreement with the State Department and got a loan, paid for by the Consulate in C. Mai. Hmmmm, didn't realize they'd go so far to do this. And, jaloochapurr, yes, please scan the various documents that you have, after, of course, deleting your personal details.

ubonjoe Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 The only thing that surprised me is that they paid the overstay. At one time all they would do was airfare and living costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavyDrinker Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 As far as I see it, once you pay the 20K fine. That is it. You have made retribution for your 'crimes'. Clean slate. It's if you get sussed out before that moment, you have big ploplem...though I stand to be corrected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyL Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 (edited) Yes, they will pay the 20K overstay fine as part of the loan package. How else are they going to get you on the plane and back to the U.S? But, you've got to repay it before you get another passport and any federal benefits, like Social Security, will soon be tapped if you don't repay the loan soon. It doesn't make any sense to offer a loan for the airfare and housing expenses before the trip without also offering a loan for overstay -- if the objective is to get the U.S. citizen back to the Homeland. Incidentally, the "housing allowance" they use for the people who have to hang around Chiang Mai for a time while arrangements are being made is something like 200 baht per day. And they expect the guest house to provide breakfast as part of that 200 baht! Edited May 30, 2014 by NancyL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
