Thanks in advance. On the website 90 day AND TM30 are both shown as available online right next to each other these are BOTH linked in this system thats down, the THAIS are complaining about TM30, HOTELS have to use this system and many agents also help their FOREIGN customers using this system, now it involves ridiculous treks out to Chaeng Wattana, if you havent got facebook then you cant read it but here is ONE post in Thai but there are MANY some are very scathing about the inefficiency over this. นี่ถ้าว่างนักก็ไปwebsite ของตัวเองก่อนค่ะ ตั้งนานแล้วไม่เสร็จซักที. แจ้ง 22 March จะเสร็จก็ไม่เสร็จ ทำไม่ได้ก็ไปจ้างคนอื่นมาทำ จะเข้ามาด่าทุกวัน อะไรเป็นเดือนๆ เช้าชามเย็นชามจริง๐ค่ะ ประชาชน ไม่ยื่นในกำหนดโดยปรับ แต่ราชการทำงานไม่เสร็จภายในกำหนดกับไม่ไโนลงโทษ ยุคไหนแล้วครับ ปล่อยให้ระบบล่มเป็นเดือนๆ ไปก็เสี่ยงโควิด-19 A translation of the bottom one is "Citizens do not file in the deadline by fines. But the government does not finish the work within the deadline with no punishment. What era? Let the system crash for months Going and risking COVID-19" Edited March 23, 2021 by gunderhill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was posted in another topic. Maybe immigration is going for a full 90 days shutdown of the 90 days reporting. Any update by the way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bulmercke Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Yep I just checked again. Link not working as everybody knows already. I guess the regular daily - twice daily - three times daily updates reconfirming the status of the online 90 day reporting (still not working) are useful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't extend visa without it. You used EMS for delivery to Immigration? You verified that it was delivered? You included an envelope with postage, preferrably EMS, back to you? You receive Thai post reliably? You've filed by mail before? When will you go for your visa extension? Personally, I wouldn't sweat this, mine have taken 21 - 28 days. I photograph all documents, both envelopes (at the post office), so feel confident I can demostrate that I made every effort to abide by the law. I'd go for my extension with confidence, I don't think I've been asked for my 90-day next report slip (assume they can look it up, if the system is working). Obviously if rejected I'd go to MTT to file. Based on reports here and on FB, it "feels" like the current outtage is impacting Immigration too, so they must have some manual process to verify and issue new slips-just my guess. And for CW, mail-ins are batched, boxed and transported over to MTT. I assume MTT has Thai Post pick-up, but who really knows. Maybe they batche verything back to CW? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell you who are good and that's HUA HIN immigration, they are pretty darn good there.On a recent trip to do a written 90 day they did'nt even ask for the paperwork just took my passport and shoved the paper in their to say Id done it. Now THATS how the nonsensical 90 day reports should be done when there's no online option if it HAS to be done.

And we have a "drive-thru" - don't have to go into the building, just sit in the car for a minute or two. How can we make other Immigration offices copy this model?

Name given as recipient was "Natcha". Recorded delivery. not "signed for", maybe a mistake. All the above except not filed by post before and not EMS back because I have found Thai post so reliable.. In fairness not yet at their "give it a month" If it comes back after 21 -28 days then I am not yet there. Thanks for that. Earliest date is within a few days - prefer before Songkran but have time. One time the first officer completed all my paperwork and then told me I had to complete 90 day report before she could give to second officer- I pointed out that she had overlooked it in my passport and they were very apologetic about it.
