Should I keep waiting for my visa application or reschedule my flight on November 13th?
Flight is the Nov 13th does this sound like I should keep waiting or should I reschedule?
Answer summary
The user is concerned about the timing of their visa application with a flight scheduled for November 13th. Comments suggest considering how long it has been since applying, the processing times stated by the NYC Consulate, and potential signs of a unprofessional response from the consulate which may warrant rescheduling the flight. The advice generally leans towards postponing travel plans due to the uncertainty of visa processing.

You can check the status of your visa application on your dashboard. Go to all applications , click the + sign at the side of the application and then scroll across to see the status.

The NYC Consulate has been stating 30 days for processing since at least July. Towards late Aug they moved to 30-45 days for processing. They do respond and did complete processing on time despite being slightly under that timeframe. You are significantly under that timeframe so you’ll have to hope or delay. Good luck!

This is a bit weird: "She will endeavour" & the signature "visa officer". All seems a bit off. You would think if they decided to respond it would be correct, have at least some punctuation and the signature would be "Thailand Consul General New York" or something like that, something more professional.

Mick Lor we received the same letter from the NYC office.

Although the letter sounds encouraging you only applied a week ago, I'd rebook your ticket for at least a couple of weeks later.

This is a wind up no one receives this type of message from them, utter nonsense. The wording She would never be spoken.

Kevin O'donnell This is a standard wording response from NYC Consulate

Kevin O'donnell I agree, this reads as fake or spam.

Absolutely fake.

Rob Blackwell Definitley legit. My associate had a similarly worded response from NY
Jared **********
he says it came from NY but it doesn’t read like any interaction i’ve ever had with them
It also says 45 business days, which is 9 weeks and their official website suggests applying 6 weeks in advance (and not later then 30 days)
It does seem a bit off, but that’s also pretty on brand

How long you stay in Thailand?
You can enter on visa exemption 30 days. Then visit immigration office and extend it with 30 days for around 2000 baht

When did you apply? Are you at the end of the 45 day period or the beginning?

Joel Ward We applied for our visa from NYC on Oct.6 with a flight booked for Nov. 4 thinking that should be plenty of time. We received the exact same letter on Oct. 30, but at 10pm on Nov 3 we got our visa.

OPJoel Ward November 1st unfortunately. We found out last minute of the new restrictions since we purchased in March
