Specific questions for 90-day reporting on a non-immigrant O-A visa.

I’m sure this info has been answered elsewhere, but these boards have been very helpful.

Generally speaking, is my understanding correct that the first time you do a 90-day reporting it should be done in person at the immigration office where you reside, but then subsequent reporting can be done online, regardless of where you are staying at the time?

Is my understanding correct that if you leave Thailand, that your 90-day reporting clock resets from the time you re-enter Thailand on this visa? If that’s true, is there any place online to check when you’re 90-day reporting is due or do you have to essentially keep track of everything on your own based on your last 90-day reporting and/or your last arrival stamp?

And then I have questions on these two scenarios:

1. If I have a long-term lease in Bangkok, but at the time of my 90-day reporting, I happen to be traveling in Phuket, am I supposed to report my leased residence in Bangkok or where I am currently traveling in Phuket? If it’s a hotel in Phuket, does that matter? 

2. If I don’t have a long-term lease at the time of my 90-day reporting, and my location has changed since my last 90-day reporting. Let’s say, my first reporting was at an Airbnb in Bangkok, and now I am traveling and I’m in a hotel in Phuket, which I presume would not have TM 30. What would I do in that scenario?

Thanks again for helping the newbie!

When saving money for a DTV Visa, does it all have to be earned income? Or can you get a loan?

I just was contacted by an agent and he say clear: if your website just start up, and you cant show income of it from the last 6 months (website only 5 weeks online) even the 1.5M savings ll not be enough to have your DTV visa. Dont do it... 😭😭

Preparing documents for a Non-OA visa from California and the most frustrated part is the FBI/State criminal record clearance letter. Went to get fingerprinted and the letter received was just a print out and now we have to figure out how to get a certified letter from the state (CA) or FBI. Any advice?

I just returned from my in person medical evaluation for the medical soft power route to a DTV. Is anyone else pursuing the medical soft and power route for a DTV?

Hi, has anyone used their investments or annuity to create a business to hire yourself for the workcation dtv? If so how many months did you set up your business prior to applying? (If American would a dba certificate suffice or should I set up an LLC)

I have a stable annuity and would like to use that via a business instead of doing a soft power visa. (We prefer this bc although we want to take language classes we don’t want to be tied down to one area of the country for those classes)
