Applied to New York Consulate for DTV remote work on Jan 8th. Status changed to pending approval the next day. No request for more documents from the consulate but still pending approval. What should my expectations be? Anyone can give an estimate for New York? Thanks.
Can anyone help with the procedure of cancelling your visa and work permit from abroad? My employer says they will cancel and nothing needs to be done on my end, is this correct?
Our DTV application went from Pending documents check to pending approval. Applied, Oct 3rd, Oct 10th pending approval, and now 12 days later, after I called, they changed it back to Pending document check.
Whats going on. It feels like they just forgot about it, and now its going back into the entire system again? Does this mean we have to wait another 20 days, or nobody has a clue whats going on behind the scenes?
Our LTR visa application recently got rejected after almost 5 weeks despite full qualification and submission of all relevant documents.
There was no explanation given.
We've written emails to BOI but haven't heard back. Has anyone else been through this process and if so, can you suggest a way out? We seem to be at a dead-end.
Reporting latest experience. Yesterday transferred the monthly 65000 baht from my Australian bank account via Wise (Funds for longstay in Thailand) to my Bangkok Bank account. Transfer initiated at 9:40am, funds arrived in Bangkok Bank account sometime between 12:30 and 12:50pm correctly noted on the account as an international transfer, for immigration purposes. Transferred funds for rent and internet at around 1:30pm. Used QR Promptpay scan four times between 4:00pm and 8:00pm.
At 2:30pm ordered 12-month statement from bank app (for immigration purposes this coming week), which arrived via email at 4:30pm.
I'm on non-O retirement extension, BB customer for eight years.
Absolutely no problems, account not frozen or suspended.
Bangkok Bank and Wise not quite the ogres which some are suggesting!
I am in the process of doing the Thai non-immigrant retirement visa O. The guides that I have read (Siam Legal, Thai Embassy- Los Angeles) says that you can EITHER have a deposit of 800,000 baht for two months in a thai bank or show proof of 65,000 pension income. If I choose the latter, will they accept twelve months of deposit records of my social security to my US bank account (or will they accept a social security benefit statement) as proof of the income? Or, do I have to have the 65,000 baht deposited monthly to a thai bank and can only use the 65,000 baht requirement once I have been in the country and made twelve monthly deposits to a Thai bank? In other words, do I have to maintain 800,000 baht in a thai bank account for the first year then I can switch to the 65,000 baht income scheme?
My thanks for any serious responses to my question.
I got medical procedure planned for this year, and since that will put me out of business for at least 3 to four months, I will do it in Thailand, so I can get nurtured back to health by my wife .
No I'm thinking about flying to Laos first
Get a two months visa at immigration there, and after surgery, go to immigration in my town to get extension (with a letter from my doctor )
Or
Go straight to Thailand
Get visa exempt, and than go immigration, with a letter from the doctor.
What is the best option.
Going to the embassy in my home country is kinda complicated, since I work offshore, and need to have my passport with me at all times.
