Hello everyone! Just wanted to update you all that today I received my 1 year extension based on trailing spouse (my husband has a retirement visa extension). The process was very smooth, only took about 20 minutes (Hua Hin Immigration).

As long as you have the papers in order, everything will be easy and straightforward.

You can do it yourself without the need of agents as long as you follow the required steps and follow the useful advices you get from the admins in this group.

Thank you all who helped me with any advice throughout this process 🙏

Good luck everyone and don't forget to stay positive 🎉
