uhuh Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 In May, immigration in Suksawad handed out a form to be signed by a Thai guarantor if people applied for extension of stay of a non O - visa because of retirement. The guarantor should be present when the application is filed That would mean, you cannot apply for this extension of stay if you come alone to immigration or if you don't ķnow a Thai willing to guarantee for you. I have not met anybody who has seen this form before. Have you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubonjoe Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Never seen it nor ever heard of it being needed. I can assure that many people have gotten extensions recently without needing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaidDown Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Also never seen it. It appears that the guarantor is affirming the current address of the applicant., see 2) about half way down... I guarantee Mr/mrs ...is still living at...... Was this instead of any other address info? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Current address was documented by rental contract with copies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrWorldwide Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 This looks like the form a Thai bar owner told me about recently - he said he had signed the form for several Farang in the past, but he said it was for them to get a Thai bank account not specifically for a visa/extension. I needed no such guarantee to get my KT account FWIW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firefox999uk Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 (edited) Or maybe the Retirement extension, is easier than a Marriage extension scenario, is coming to an end. Just saying like.

streetlite Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Interesting. Two years ago at Nakhon Sawan immigration they asked for my wife to come inside and sign a document in reference to my retirement Visa. I paid no attention to it, she signed and we left.. I've had 5 renewals and this was at the 4th renewal. This year there was nothing mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 It should be noted this was given at Suksawat which is for migrant workers during the period of time when it was a temporary office for those from all countries. Could it be possible the form was given in error by an immigration officer not fully aware of the requirements for those that are not migrant workers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know whether in the end they really needed a Thai guarantor (one had brought aThai along but she would not sign this) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had 5 renewals and this was at the 4th renewal. This year there was nothing mentioned. In 2009 I applied for a marriage extension at Mae Sot and brought my wife and son but I don't remember her signing any documents. When I went back 30 days later they explained that they had given me a retirement extension. It served me right for not checking. From 2010 on I used Nakhon Sawan and did the retirement extension on my own and have never been given that paper. I will be going again at the end of this month so I will see if it comes up.

Have a Nice Day. Any chance of subtitles with future posts, Chief ? What, precisely, is 'coming to an end' ? Everybody always says go for a retirement extension its easier than a marriage extension, less documents Didn’t I write that earlier, and didn't i write maybe. Or maybe it was because I sat hear with my tongue in my cheek and didn’t realise what I wrote Have a Nice Day.

They are happy if the applicant himself fills it out and signs it. In the field "relationship" write "myself" So applicant and guarantor are one person.
