My Thai wife of 2 1/2 years has been working on trying to finalize her Green Card/I-130 Visa. USCIS received her application in January of ‘24. Does anyone have any idea how much longer this legal approach will take? Any insight will be welcomed. Thanks

If long term resident with support Thai wife visa and a reentry permit can I use the Thai or vip line when exiting swampy at immigration?

I am curious and want to ask a question for expats from the US, that have married Thai women. What are the specific rules concerning social security and a Thai spouse? I've done some research but I'm still not quite clear and I'd like to hear from anyone that has married a Thai lady and is on social security. It says that they have to live in the US for 5 years, although they're not consecutive. And what if you then died? Would she get a portion of your social security? Especially if she had a child under 16 years old?

Not looking for anybody to tell me Don't get involved with a Thai lady here. Please, don't want to hear that. Just want to know about the question and I appreciate you sticking to that topic.

Thank you.

For Chaengwattana immigration, does anyone know 1) What format of family pictures with Thai wife are needed for a Non-O visa extension (Thai Spouse). Do they have to be printed on photopaper or does it have to be colored or B&W printed on normal paper? 2) Can the map just be google maps with condo circled?

Hello, I'm actually on a process to renew my non O visa based on a thai spouse (Visa under consideration) so I have already gave all the documents required and just wait for my next appointment. Do I need to keep the 400k thb on my thai bank during this period or it is fine I can move this money away?

Thank you

Sorry if this is a little long winded.

I am a UK citizen with a Spanish residency NIE card. I am marrying a Thai lady soon in the UK, and we would like to go to Spain after we marry.

My question is: does she need to return to Thailand to obtain a visa for Spain or can she apply here in the UK or can she travel with me without a visa because we are married and I have a residency permit.?

Thanks

Hi everyone, for the Laos land border are there separate lines for us and our Thai spouse? Want to be prepared. Thank you.

I will be entering Thailand on a non immagrint o visa based on having a Thai spouse.

Can this be extended for another 90 days or would I have to leave the country and apply for a new visa again ?

Just seeing how long I can stay without having to lodge the 400k in a bank account for the 1 year extension.

Cheers 🙂

Hello the community. I'm french nationality and plan to come in Thailand to claim a retirement extension to a non-immigrant O visa. I'm married with a thai spouse since 30 years. We live in Prachuap Khiri Khan. I'm actually in France and coming in Thailand next month. I need some explanation about the procedure to claim an extension retirement to non-immigrant visa O (not OA). I've seen your diagram explaining how to do but I need some more details. Coming in Thailand with a visa exemption 30 days, may I apply a non-immigrant visa leading to 1 year extension retirement at the immigration (Hua-Hin) ? I believe that it will be a non-immigrant O visa. Am I right ? I'm maybe confused with O (inside Thailand) and OA visa (out of Thailand). Thanks for all your advices.

How much monthly money do I have to show coming from UK to satisfy marriage visa requirements? TIA
