I am debating what way I should submit my application.

Option 1: dependant visa, my husband already got his DTV approved, we have funds in both our bank account.

Potential probelm: we are both canadians, he is polish and we have a polish marriage certificate which stated we are married in Mexico (destination wedding), it is translated and notarized in Canada, we do not have it legalized by poland officials. I consulted an agent before and they said it's required to be legalized which we won't be able to do as we are not in poland.

Option 2: soft power medical, I already have a letter from bangkok hospital for this purpose.

Potential problem: my fund in my bank account had only been in my bank since early September, would that be enough? I can provide other proof of funds in my investment accounts for more than 6 months.

Or would it work if i apply for dependent visa with a medical appointment letter and my current bank statement as supporting ? Or visa versa (apply soft power medical and attach my husband's dtv as extra supporting ? )

I am in hong kong now applying online via hong kong thai embassy (hong kong permanent resident) If that matters.

Thanks a lot for any input in advance.

Hey group I’ve applied as a remote worker and currently the visa status is ‘processing pending approval’. Problem is my flight is in 3 days. What do you think I should do ?

Hello everyone. 🙂

I flew in and received a 60 day visa exempt on UK passport.

I want to extend for another 30 days, making total 90 days.

Can this be done from your first day of arrival onwards or does it have to be towards the end of the 60 day visa exempt to get the full additional 30 days extension?

Also am I best to extend in Patong office or when I go to Koh phangan? Is there one thats quicker and more efficient you would choose?

Thanks so much in advance for any advice or input. 🙏🏼😊

For proof of place in Thailand, would printing a copy of the rental contract be enough?

Hi. The owner of my room provided TM 30 on the day I moved in and it was for 1 year.

But I went out of Thailand last week and came back. Do I need to ask for the TM30 again?
