Hey! 

Has anyone applied recently via the medical route in Jakarta? I am still unsure which route to apply with. I do have some medical treatments lined up. I also heard that they thai embassies are starting to require a document that shows a partial payment for the treatments, like a deposit. Any information on that? 

I'll definitely will apply in Jakarta because i am currently on Lombok. 

Cheers Eva

depends on the kind of medical treatment and it can still be a gamble except if you have a previous history of treatments in thailand. I feel it's safer to waste

The extension requirements set by immigration, which everyone thought would be very easy, actually aren't assumptions anymore. 😏

Cheaper maybe but that's probably for a short term class. The day you decide to extend in Thailand or if they become stricter on the "ongoing activity", you'll need to invest into new classes.

I used a culinary school and got approved yesterday in Laos, the school offers a full refund if denied!
