under consideration visits

[toots]

What is the chance of having a home visit during under consideration? I live 60k from office and am the only farang in village.

Where are you ? Buriram by any chance ?

If so then there is a very good chance you will get a home visit

That depends upon the office where you have to apply for the extension. Some ask for witnesses instead of doing a home visit.

After the first extension they are not normally done unless you move and apply at a new immigration office.

Sounds like i will be ok this will be my 10th extension same address. Another thing do they say when they are coming because maybe you have gone on holiday for a few days or something.

They will normally contact you when they plan on making the visit.

When I applied at Sakhon Nakhon for an extension of stay based upon marriage I had a witness with me. They also visited my home 7 days after I applied.

They did check with me first if they could visit on that day. Very courteous officers working at Sakhon Nakhon.

In Korat, they seem to have stepped up the visits. The first time they called it was 8 at night. They wanted to have 2 neighbors be here for witnesses. I live in a village about an hour and fifteen minutes north of Korat. We told them everyone in the village was asleep (which is true around here), so they said they would come by next time they were in the area. When they came, about 4 days later, they told me they were visiting about 10 a day. I have had 3 extensions before, this was the first visit.
