joeyg Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 When I got my stamp yesterday and our transaction was complete, I asked if I could file on line at the Samut Prakan office. The man very nicely said yes and handed me his desk copy of a book. It was about 3'4" thick. He flipped through to the middle and showed me the second half of the book that contained all the instructions. I thumbed through it. There where pages with "Screen Shots" and about 3/8" of pages on what do do. The small office was filling up fast. I actually would have spent more time looking through it. I was the first in line but it was getting very crowed very quickly. I just told him thanks a lot and I would check on the internet. What was that website? Curiously some English guy was getting into a heated argument about his "visa." The weird thing is a similar incident occurred last time I was at this office downstairs with another "Brit". The immigration lady remained very calm and repeated several times to him what he had to do. It was something that he needed to be done at his embassy that could not be done there. The guy was furious and yelling at the top of his lungs and slamming his hands with the papers on the counter. I wanted to "cold cock" this guy Jersey style. I really don't think anyone would have minded. Anyway 2 nice police officers showed up from nowhere and escorted the idiot outside. Good entertainment to watch a hung over Brit with a dirty wife beater teeshirt on acting like a typical hung over burn out victim. The entertainment factor only lasted a few moments though before it became very annoying. I think better that he would have just got hit in the face with a chair. I'm sure the "boys in brown" gave him a little reality check... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 The instructions you were shown are available for download on the online reporting home page. http://extranet.immigration.go.th/pibics/online/tm47/TM47Action.do You do not really need the instructions. They are easy to do once you get started. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyg Posted June 4, 2015 Author Share Posted June 4, 2015 Wife beaters aren't T-shirts. Where I was raised in Jersey they were called Athletic Teeshirts. Some called them sleeve less Teeshirts. Never heard them described as "wife beaters" until about 10 years ago. Thanks for the valuable input though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnice Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I live in Chiang Mai, when i tried to fill in the form, it keeps refering me to contact the Immigration office. Is 90day reporting online not available yet in Chiang Mai? The first part of the form is easy enough to understand, where it asks the flight number I arrived on in 2007, i obviously couldn't fill that in, besides it didn't have a red asterisk next to it. But as soon as I try to submit the form it refers me to the Imm Dept...am I doing something wrong? Help would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnice Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Thanks for the prompt reply nzexpat...I tried filling the form in again, but no luck...before i contact them, a quick question, my actual report date is the 20th June, is it perhaps like the Online queue for the retirement visa, where you cant apply early, iow, should i leave it to a bit later?

Yep - I even got my 'Pending' acknowledgement, but it never got confirmed so I still ended up at Immigration. I agree: it appears to be that their database verification system can't cope with either not entering a flight number or the flight numbers since you re-entered Thailand more recently - as in my case.

There are reports of CM members successfully completing online including obtaining the receipt. More though are experiencing what you have seen, myself included. But as mentioned, need to try when you are within the 15-7 day window before expiration of the current report. I've switched over to mail in a while ago and it has been working fine so probably a good option for you until success with online. 90 Day Report - Procedures CM 90 Day Reporting Online - just did it CM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maestro Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Three quarters of an inch seems to be what joeyg was talking about. Schoolbooks probably have it printed as ¾". Not easy to do that on a computer keyboard. Now, what was this topic about? The guidelines for online 90-day notification, I seem to remember.
