Popular Post glegolo Posted September 23, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted September 23, 2016 Went yesterady for the 7th time, to make my yearly retirement extension to the immigration office in Khon Kaen. As most of the times this was a nice experience. The joker was there, the guy to the left, a nice guy that sings and jokes little bit more than he actually works... The lady that has been there from the start 2010 sitting to the right, I have always have a good eye to here, always nice and service-minded towards me.... AND in the middle there was the last 2 years big favorite of mine, the cute young girl, that have not yet been blase´and boared of her work. Always having a smile in her face, talk nicely to you, and are serviceminded and helpful... That one is a 9 out of a 10,,, a so called keeper... The cute girl took care of me, and as usual it was like a trainride, no problem at all, all my papers was prepared in beforehand, so no stupid hickup at her desk, so she was happy. I was forced to fill in 3 papers and signed them all,,,,, they were mostly in thai and needed to be signed, the rest I didn´t care about at all... The foreigner report was already filled in by me at home, so that was no problem either... In and out in 35 minutes and that included that I had number 5 when I came, and the girl was processing number 1.. so in 35 minutes she managed to process 5 people.... well done... All good, and next time I do not have to go 250 km back and forth to Khon Kaen, because we will have our own office opened here in Chaiyaphum.... Wanted anyhow to give roses among some bad reviews of Khon Kaen... Glegolo 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phuket Man Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Yep. Nothing wrong with that. After reading about other Immigration Offices, KK is actually a pleasure to visit. Something to look forward to rather than dread. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surasak Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 I have been attended to by all of the staff at KK imigration and cannot find a bad worf to say against any of them, all very helpful. Like anyone else, they have the off days, but on the occasions I have had to sit and wait, I notice they justified in having a go at those who waste their time. That is, with incorrect paperwork, more so when it is someone they know should know better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinL Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 (edited) In 7 years, my dealings with KK Immigration have been 95% trouble-free. However, that just makes the odd inconsistency that much more aggravating. My last three 90-Day Reports have required no paperwork at all, just hand over the passport & receipt from last visit and everything was completed from there. I always had a completed TM47 just in case, though, but have been able to throw it in the bin on the way out. The last visit was 2 weeks ago. The 'cute girl' - who I've dealt with on 2 of the 3 previous visits when she didn't want any copies at all - wanted the TM47 and copies of 4 passport pages. No problem - outside, the girls do the copies & back to the IO. Not anything to get upset about, really, but the lack of consistency for something that should be so simple is a little annoying. Having said that, the receipt form was hand-written this time rather than printed, so perhaps I was having a sensitive day and they had computer/printer problems. NO personal information form requested yet, BTW. Edited September 24, 2016 by MartinL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loong Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Quote NO personal information form requested yet, BTW. My last visit was about 2 weeks ago for my year extension and the personal information form was stapled to the extension of stay form. Probably don't have to do it when 90 day reporting? I seem to get the cute girl most times since she has been there. She seems to be more efficient and gets through the extensions quickly. And always with a big smile. Sometimes I actuslly enjoy going to KK immigration office :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I thought but I know people who've completed it on a 90-Day at KK. Others have reported having to do it on a 90-Day on KK forum.

kokopelli Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Thank you ubonjoe. Is this form the infamous "new form" which has been the topic of recent discussions? I didn't know that it even had an Official Name. When I did a recent single reentry permit request I was asked to fill a form similar/same to that one. I really didn't pay much attention to it, just handed it to a nice lady at the check in desk who filled it out using only my name and address and whatever other info was on my TM8 form while I got the required photo plus 100 Baht tip. I know of another guy (80+ yo) who was scared shitless when given this form and returned to his condo in a panic seeking help from someone else who also knew nothing about the form.

I fel that I have to write about my own feelings what regvards this foreigner report form that so many falangs have been writing about, and being scare to death.... I filled it in as it should be, I never found it to be the least strange, more than of course all this repetion of addresses and names and passportnumbers of course. But all the rest was optional, no one forced me to fill in stuff that i didnt want to fill in. I mean who is scared to fill in phone number and emailadress?? Who is scared to fill in Facebook or if you dont want that for Gods sake fill in just SKYPE and everybody happy... I for one found this form to be just that,,,, a form to fill in, and nothing else..... Dont be scared and let all these guys with their theories about privacy gets to you. Relax nobody want you any harm... it is just a damn form.. Glegolo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you manage to spell my nickname correct, I may consider it. I think the staff is not the problem up there, but maybe some falangs up there..??
