Just done my first Thai Retirement Visa (Non-O) on-line 90-day reporting at the web-site.

I have done my first reporting requirement reporting in-person as they say do.

Had a few little issues with getting the form filled in. The biggest single thing is the TM47 form would not allow me to enter some small amount of info, like the check-mark for either naming myself a tourist or a retiree. It would not accept either selection.

Good news is it accepted the form as a whole. Now my question: there is a place on the form listing the status of the form approval.

So far at the status slot it says 'Pending'.

So how long does it typically take for it to show 'Accept' or 'Reject'?

One day, 2 days, 5 days?

I looked on the net but could find no definitive info.

Thank a bunch for your help!

If this is your second report you are now on an extension. To avoid confusion and to obtain relevant advice in the future, state you're on a non O over 50/retirement extension.

You must be on a 12 month Extension of Stay to be doing a 90 day report not a Non-O Visa

@Graham *****
most people don't know the difference between a visa and an extension of stay, so refer to an extension as a visa or visa extension...
