Just a comment about the value of actually reading previous posts on specific subjects - it will make your life a lot easier to search first and note the details, nearly everything routine has been covered. Today: appointment prebooked for this morning at CW for visa extension. Arrived exactly on time (by a bit of luck admitedly), from the queue at the door for ID and photo to exit was 23 minutes. A personal best.

I have applied for c.o.e .......... can anyone tell me if they do not accept me what happens I lose my money or ....someone to help

Happy as a sand boy again and thanks for the advice given to obtain my Proof of income As always given sound advice and follow correct information . Before id listernd to different people,s comments

1 You have to have 65,000 baht per mth . Not if married 40,000 baht per mth .

2 Get to the Embassy early to avoid quews . You can only do by post.

3 You have to get written confermation from pension providers . Wrong you can supply your bank statements

4 . You cant use house rental as an income Wrong ive just supplied my bank statements and its been included in my proof of income letter.

Its so unbelieveably easy it took 9 days from posting to return it cost £ 53 which was taken from my debit card , which is the only method of paying. . Google proof of income for visa Down load forms Down load bank statement Photo copy picture from passport hope this helps as even if you dont have enough income , you can conbine with money in the bank and vissa versa
