Hello All ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š

My husband and I are US citizens

I have a non B visa (teaching English) and he has a non O based on marriage to me.

We received them in January so our current stamp expires in April.

I have all of our documents from my employer and my work permit.

My question is are there any updates on immigration in Chiang Mai for an extension of stay or a 90 day check in?

Please correct me if I am using the incorrect terms. This is our first time on these visas so I want to be clear on the terminology before I get there.

Thank you in advance ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š

There are no changes, you have to visit the Immigration Office, get the hand out for the 1 year Extension of Stay based on working for yourself and for the 1 year Extension of Stay based on being dependent on a foreigner working in Thailand, make all the copies, tick the list one by one to be sure you have all and apply for the 1 year Extension of Stay.

Thank you so much ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’™

Just to clarify once we receive the 1 year extension of stay we:

1. Must do 90 day check ins (in person, online or by mail)

2. Apply for another extension in person in Chiang Mai next year

It is my understanding that as long as I am employed with the same company we can continue to apply for extensions in person each year in the country and we do not have to do anymore border runs. Is this correct?
