I’ll be going to Chiang Rai to live with my fiancee,was just asking for good advice from people who have experienced retirement hurdlesDwayne ********

apologizes the rudeness, haven’t been to Chiang Rai but heard, careful jungle/ thick forest exploring - some mosquitoes carry dengue fever & guessing it’s the ones with spotted bright colors. The rest of Thailand is safe (maybe not Phangnra national forest) from malaria & dengue.Paul *********
OX visa is the best

I have no idea, it likely depends on the visa type you're applying for and how thorough your initial document submission was. Any requests for further documents will delay the process.
