Hi all, for Chaengwattana, what is the earliest I can apply for yearly non-o extension (based on marriage) from my 90 day non-o visa- is it 45 days or 30 days remaining?

In my previous yearly extensions is was basically a month’s consideration time, but it seems some have said 21 days- is this the norm now at CW? Thanks so much- trying to figure out timings before leaving for UK Christmas.

Don’t know if the right group but here goes.

This is about my Thai wife’s visa to the USA 🇺🇸.

We were married 1/12 weeks were planing to visit the USA 🇺🇸 in two years from marriage. From what I read that’s the magic number needed ( 2 years ) for a visa to be granted.

The question is I have a good friend that has lung cancer. I doubt if she will make it to our two years anniversary.

Is it possible to get her a visa with a doctors letter to visit my friend?

Is a different city more lenient ?

I’m good Non O with reentry permit.

Just wondered if someone here had a similar situation.

Thanking you in advance

If I want to apply for a non-O visa based on marriage, do I apply online before leaving Canada, or in person after arrival?

Hello 🙏☺️

I hope someone have any advice on my situation as its stressing me outtttt.

In february me and my thai boyfriend and our 2 babies flew from Sweden to Thailand. The plan was to get married and then convert visa exempt to non o visa. But the marriage part took such a long time due to paperwork being wrong and stuff. We only got married a couple of days before my visa exempt extension was finished. So I had to do a boarder bounce by land to get 60 new visa exempt days. After the 60 days I got another extension and before that was finished we flew back to Sweden for one month holiday.

My plan was to get the non o visa from here and fly back with that. To apply from sweden though its more than 1 month waiting at the moment so I wont have time to get a non o visa from here 😭 (ive spoken to embassy already)

I am terrrrrified to fly back to Thailand with no visa and trying to enter on another visa exempt to convert into a non o visa. Anyone have been in similar situtation with 2 visa exempts and trying for a 3rd but having a "valid" reason for it?

Im travelling with my thai hustband and our 2 babies back to thailand. I have my marriage documents with me.

Is there any other visa I can apply for ? Or would even a tourist visa be better?

Any help is appriciated. Thank you so much 🙏☺️

I thought we had all the ducks in a row, I have got a Thai marriage certificate stamped and certified, yellow book, Thai ID card and trying to work towards a marriage visa. Now I need to open a Thai bank account to season funds however after having been to several banks that refuse to open an account without a visa, my wife is now taking me to a Chinese bank, I’m having serious reservations about this.

When on a non-o based on marriage to a Thai woman Is it allowed that a bank account drops under the 400k for a short period about 5 months prior to a new extension?

Report on my trip to CW yesterday to apply for my second stay extension based on marriage to a Thai citizen.

Two weeks prior my wife went to Huay Kwang District office to obtain an updated copy of our marriage certificate ( KR2). Easy to do. She just had to show her ID card and a copy of our original certificate. And pay 20 baht per copy of course.

Went to Bangkok Bank in the morning before going to CW for my 2pm appointment. No problem to obtain the bank letter or statement. Didn’t have to fill out any forms committing to keep funds in my account for any period of time. I had kept a balance over 400k for more than 4 months prior anyway but it wasn’t mentioned.

Went to CW for 2pm appointment and was finished and out of the door by 3pm. Went like clockwork. All discussions were between my wife and the IO in Thai and the IO only comment to me was to recommend that I get a new passport before applying next year as my passport expires next September. Back in 21 days to get the extension inked in. Note that IO did not ask for the updated KR2. At the end of the process she took a photo of my wife and I jointly holding up a sign in Thai that my wife said it stated in Thai that we are married so that may have been the necessary confirmation that we are still married. IO stated that my wife could come alone on 15 August to get my extension inked in ( having observed that my mobility isn’t good) but confirmed that I would have to attend in person if I wanted to apply for a RE permit. She suggested that I apply for the RE permit at the airport when I leave which sounds like a plan to me.

In conclusion meticulous preparation paid off and I am attaching my homemade check list in case it helps others. Note for the family photos I provided 6 photos printed 2 per page directly onto glossy photo paper with captions below and she was quite happy with them.
