ORIGINAL POSTER

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?

What was a problem to apply for year extension?

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?
