@Оливер ********

far from it

@Jaymie *******

I just took this from another group. The guy that posted it, tod Daniels, really knows his stuff. I thought you'd find it useful

1 - you can indeed get a 60 day visit thai family extension without proof of funds with just your name on the birth certificate and documentation from the thai mother

unfortunately unless you have been granted legal parental rights by the decree from family court, OR your child is over 7 and you were able to get the parental rights granted at your local Amphur (City Hall) you can't get a year extension based on being the parent of a thai child. Even if your name is on the birth certificate, and/or your child has a passport from your country without the family court or amphur decree of granting legal parental rights you can't get a year extension

@Jaymie *******

I assume you're on the Thai birth certificate.so as long as he is your dependant you should be fine
