Has anyone had any problems applying for second non immigrant O visa (volunteer)? From Laos, Cambodia or Vietnam? Someone I know was rejected for not having a work permit however I know this hasn’t been in issue in the past for others.

Any insight would be very helpful! Thanks.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The inquiry discusses the challenges faced when applying for a second Non-Immigrant O visa for volunteering from neighboring countries. It highlights a specific case of rejection due to the lack of a work permit and questions whether this requirement has changed over time, as others have reportedly not faced the same issue. One comment mentions that Thai consulates in Laos require proof of work permit application for this visa type, suggesting that rules may vary or have been enforced differently.

Unless I'm mistaken the thai consulates in Lao both require you have proof that you have applied for a work permit for Non-O visa based on volunteering.
