Just got back from the Nonthaburi Immigration Office.  Went in with all of our paper work and then less than two hours later we walked out with our one year visa extensions!

Just ONE trip! No going back and forth to the Immigration office half a dozen times in order to find more documentation that is always missing. No waiting in LONG lines.

In more than 30+ years of living in Thailand, I think this is the first time that has EVER happened. Wow. Happy day.

Right now I have a retirement visa and her visa is a "dependents" visa on mine.
