Hi all, I am currently on non-imm O Thai wife visa (applied from Vientiane) extended 60 days at Chaeng Wattana. I plan to visit Vientiane again to apply. I have read somewhere that they do not accept back to back application. Can anyone advise on this?

This mean poor planning as you have money to do proper extension but seek the way to get another visa. I believe you can apply for additional 60 days per year to visit family, then apply for year extension.

Why not go to Savannakhet and get the 1 year multiple entry non immigrant o visa based on being married?

Yes. Drop off the passport on Wednesday, get the visa on Thursday. There'll be very little people then. I'm going next week for my Non-O ME, dropping off my passport on Tuesday, and getting it back on Wednesday.

I have read about the queue seems crazy on certain days. I am only available for 3 days and cannot extend my trip. I'm afraid the uncertainty will cause delay in my trip. Will you recommend that I go Savannakhet on a Wednesday?
