Hello, I've read that i need to do a cancellation of my edu visa or else I'll be fined for overstaying.

The issue here is that I have been chasing and chasing the school for a termination letter and they said they're waiting for the owner to sign the documents. He's rumoured to be on holiday in Germany???

I kept reminding them a month prior to do up the documents and they are not giving me a clear response that they will be helpful.

I should be leaving on 28 December but I'm afraid I will not get the school to give me my documents in time.

What will happen if I just leave before my extension of stay date? I will most likely not be applying for any more long term stay visas in the foreseeable future.

Since getting a Thai bank account on a DTV seems to be an issue, what are Americans doing? Favorite fee-free credit or debit card? Other workarounds? Please share what's working for you. Are you handing over 15-30k for rent in cash every month?

Anybody managed to get a bank account with DTV in Bangkok?

Visiting 10 branches, it sounds like they don't know what it is so got denied.

If you did, please share bank/branch. If you used an agent, please share contact details and fees involved.

The next day they advised that two of my papers require additional information n today I tried to upload n went in loop again n I sent by email to embassy in Ottawa n they refused to take it. I will lose 16457 baht n not get my visa. What can I do? Is it common these misadventures?

No matter how rich, we all try to safe money where we can. I don’t want to pay hundreds of dollars for fees and lost conversion rates. So I applied for the 5 years TEV 3 weeks ago. Ever since I try to get a bank account to make the 600.000 THB payment for the membership.

The plan is to slowly transfer the money from Wise to the Thai Bank account. Slowly, because I see many people get their account frozen by wise if they transfer too much money at once. I know some get away with it. But I use wise daily and do not want to risk getting my account frozen and then wait weeks to get it unfrozen. Because I read Wise customer service is slow and terrible.

But so far I got rejected from every bank I tried in bangkok. I even tried the bangkok bank in opposite of Thai Elite in Silom. They have no interest to help me. I don’t know some people are stupid or it’s a communication issue, but they asked me to take out the 600.000 THB from the ATM in cash and then put it on the bank account. That way they can help me they said. lol.

Any other bank recommendations where somebody had luck with a tourist visa?

Long story short. I applied for a K1 visa iin early December of 2022, after visiting my Thai girlfriend for two weeks in early November, 2022. Does anyone know if USCIS will fail her interview because of lack of basic English? Her son is going to accompany her to help with translation when USCIS schedules her interview in the coming months. P.S. I know she will need to know basic English in order to become a U.S. citizen but it is necessary for passing the USCIS interview?

Hi All,

My daughter received an emergency passport from US Embassy. This document is good for one year. Soon her ed visa will expire (at the end of January).

We mailed off everything for her to get a regular 10 year passport as instructed on the US Embassy Bangkok website. We then received an email from them to come to their office with no other information.

We called them because the date of of the appointment is about 2 weeks prior to the expiration of her ed visa. We asked if they will be mailing the temp passport back to us. They said they will have it there when we come for the appointment.

My questions are:

1. How long is this appointment?

1. Will she receive the temp passport during this visit or the 10 year passport?

With only 2 weeks remaining on the ed visa and the state of the ed visa situation at the moment, should she plan to fly out to USA at this time?

Any insight would help!
