Why did the immigration officer question my activities in Thailand during my DTV exit?

I'm wondering what everyone remarks say my husbands reads the same as mine but he is my dependent and my daughters remarks says child of and my name

You're assuming IOs never ask questions? Where do you get that idea from? I'm happy to answer questions as long as they're not too intrusive.

I just drove back from Phnom Penh to Bangkok recently. At a police check near the border, an officer asked me what I was doing in his district (it was evening time). I explained I went to Phnom Penh on business and now I'm driving back. He asked what kind of business, I answered and off I went. Other vehicles were pulled over and inspected more thoroughly.

It does seem immigration are asking more questions of more people since the start of the new year. First time I have heard of it upon exit though.

They think some people are working illegally in Thailand.

Sounds like the IO was assuming you were on a Soft Power DTV, and wondering how you can leave if you have registered for a course.

There is nothing on the passport or visa to distinguish between a Soft Powers one and a Workation option.

Serious question: do you use humans in Phuket? I'm new in Thailand (since August) but every time I exited the country I used automatic gates where I just scanned my passport. (This was in Suvarnabhumi Airport, and don't remember well if in Don Mueang also).

Only natural for this to happen. Some IO will waive through others ask questions.
