Does anyone have knowledge about medical exemptions to the visa interview process? I am a US citizen. My Thai girlfriend and I are expecting our daughter to be born in December. We would like to travel to the US in Febuary so that I can visit an immediate relative having health issues that involve surgery and doctors orders not to travel. The issue is that I can not travel or leave by girlfriends side, so she would have to come with me. Another issue is that the current wait time for an interview is 6 months, so our opportunity window to travel would be closed. We can only travel until July.

The last thing I want to do is upset a Visa officer, or make it look like we are trying to cut the line. I would hate to ruin our chances of getting a visa in the future. Any advice would really be greatly appreciated.

Approved for DTV for hubby, son (Spanish) and myself (Singaporean) 2 days before flying out. We almost gave up after many documents requested and submitted. Applied in Mexico.

On the day it was approved, we had an interview with the consul. She was very nice and friendly and asked many questions to verify all of the submitted documents. Basically she wanted to make sure that we are financially covered for the duration of the 5 years DTV visa.

The appt. was at 11.30am and we got the visa at 4pm. We started the process in July but because it took us quite a while to get the information it dragged on until yesterday when we had the interview. Made a mistake first by dropping by the embassy thinking we can walk in but requires an appt.

Anyway, we applied as workcation through the company that was registered in Singapore. Finally do happy I can post the good news here!!!

Good luck to all those applying and grateful it came out just after we decided to move to Thailand!

8 days I got it in Phnom Penh

Anyone have any idea how long the process is for a thai female to get approved or denied for a tourist visa to the US? Any recommendations as to the best way to approach this?

Hello

I am from Nepal and am planning on coming to Thailand to give an interview for my F1 visa for USA since the country i live in the freshers intervew dates have gone past 2023 October which is not ideal for me as my classes start from 23 jan 2023 what is the visa rates for people like me and how are the VO’s in thailand how long do they take the interview for in my country we would hardly be given 1 min to talk and couldn’t be able to fully explain about us without the VO cutting our words thats why it’s mainly taken as a lottery as even the best applicants are rejected for some reason but somehow someone that dosent have a great application is accepted sometimes is the situation in Bangkok the same or is it different ?

Looking for answer .I will be returning to Thialand January/February 2023 .This will be my 3rd visit as I was there in March 2022 with a 4 day overstay due to illness. I’ve just returned home from my October visit Nov21 on a 45 day visa.But Iam wanting to return maybe looking at buying a business so can I just get in on another 45 day visa.Or will I face some question about 3 trips in 10/11 months.Cheers .Ps Iam looking to move to Thialand next year at some time that’s another conversation.

Backwards but... How long does it usually take for a Thai woman to get a visa to visit the US? What I am seeing so far looks intimidating in terms of requirements- but I didn't see anything about the timeline. I also saw that it is almost a requirement that she show she owns property and have money- but I didn't see anything with like... number figures.

Does anyone here knows about j1 visa interview in Thailand? I would like to connect. Thank you

Hello there.. question.. when during an interview for a visa you feel completely mistreated in some embassy (Italian embassy in Bangkok).. can you request to speak with a supervisor or similars? I’m asking because I had a shocking experience recently.. so unfair.. thanks

Hi, I came to Penang for my new tourist visa and used the agents at the Banana Hotel for their visa service.

It hit a snag - an officer at the Thai consulate, because I’ve had so many visas already (including a 1 year ED Visa) and I don’t have a flight back home to the USA, wants to interview me in person before giving me the visa and my passport.

Anybody have any advice on what questions he’ll ask me and what I should say? I’m a little concerned here right now, I thought this would be a simple thing.
