I just had a phone call from Immigration saying they want to visit my residence today.

I have a 12 month Non O retirement visa .

Is this normal for them to rock up out of the blue?

Question. I’ve paid THB2000 when applying for my non-o visa Dependants Visa . I go back to immigration in 2 weeks after it’s processed.

We were told at the time , immigration will do a house visit to confirm my address with my Thai wife. They are coming this morning before 12noon. My wife took the call and was told another THB2000 is due when they visit. I cannot see anywhere to say this is true. Can anyone confirm if I should be paying another THB2000 for this immigration home visit? It might be they have got confused with the original 2000 I paid when submitting application with paperwork. Help please

Would like to share a recent experience, a call yesterday from Phuket immig asking if they could visit me at home confirming my presence before lunch today. They duly arrived at 11-30 and immig officer had a brief chat took a photo, thanked me for the very precise drawn map I presented with my last visa app…..now i’ve heard of them visiting farangs with thai wives but not retiree‘s - positive engagement chatted with my singaporean wife who is also on a retirement visa and went on his way - at least i know the map I draw and google cooridnates had some value. Very pleasant man……..

Evening everyone

Is it normal to get requested for another home visit after receiving extension I'm on a marriage visa got my extension 10th December and they wanted another visit last week but we were away for Christmas

how does work a visit if the immigration officer at home to obtain a non-O visa and what is the main purpose of this visit?

When doing your second 12 month visa extension based on marriage, does anyone know if the immigration officers want to come to your home again, personally I can not see why they would.

Question: Just applied for non o marriage year extension on Monday is it okay to travel out of town for a few days or do you have to sit home and wait? Thanks

UPDATED HOME VISIT TODAY:

Oh well we’ve been living in Thailand over 5 years now and we’ve just had our first ever immigration home visit. For our renewal of EofS marriage. It’s seems some people especially in the capital BKK get a visit every year but this was our first in 5 years. So this was a new experience for us. It was all very pleasant. Three IO’s two male one female. We signed a few documents and spoke and they took a few photo of us all in the garden. We didn’t move from the outside garden area at any point. and a photo of us at the gate entrance. All in all they were here about 35 mins and very relaxed pleasant experience.

I'm just back from chaenwattana with an under consideration stamp (Thai wife).

Will immigration actually come to my house to check?

Will they really ask my neighbors?

Anybody out there that has done this on Cheangwattana that can share the experience?

I've applied for my first ever Non-O (Married to Thai) one year extension using the 400k in bank method at Chaengwattana on 16th Nov. I need to go there again on 14th December to get the final stamp. From various sources I have come to know that in case of first time extension, the immigration gives you a home visit within the under consideration time. Now there's two days left to go and I haven't got a call or visit from immigration yet. Should I be worried? Finally thanks to Tod Daniels for encouraging me to apply for the extension by myself. I had the impression that it was a very hard process if I was to do it myself. But actually it was very easy if you've got everything you need.
