ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi, Guys ..A Massive Thanks to All on her who helped me over the last week.

I went to Immigration to extend my Non O marriage visa  Multiple entry.( I had all the stuff ready and waiting).

Got all done and completed and back home in Dindaeng by 10.30am.

Thanks so much.

One point make sure you take your children with you. I had to take my son and wife.

Several Guys  who were applying for extensions did not take their kids and were sent away.

As I was yesterday..but I returned today with my family and everything was fine.

Stay healthy!

If your visa is based on marriage you don't need to take your children, only your wife.

@Tod ********

i can understand your point. However a NON-O visa based on marriage to a thai national has nothing to do with children. The extension of stay is also based on marriage. Pointing children through the current hell of queuing for hours in a pandemic would not be advised.

I agree with you.

But fact...yesterday I was turned away because I did not have my son with me.

The officers were very clear...you must bring your son.

In these times were we are trying to protect our family it seemed odd.

But I witnessed other people being told the same today as I was told yesterday.

Tip.

Just take your kids if you have any.
