TLDR : Answer Summary

A house master is effectively the same as the owner of a residence in Thailand, as indicated by the title on the yellow book. Most immigration offices require the yellow book for processing the TM30 form.

Same thing. House master is the title on the yellow book. Depending what immigration office you're using, most want the yellow book to do a tm30.

The online system has a flaw. Did u get the 7 day notice? If not, click status and then and then check status and then your information. 7 day countdown will now be set.
