My spouse needs to get a Non-Immigrant “O” Visa -- Family Members/Dependents. Attached to my Non O retirement extension which I already have.
We're both US citizens.
We've decided to fly to Penang to apply. We have the marriage certificate and our lease here in BKK.
Couple questions,
1. I need to leave the country to do this so I'll need multiple re-entry which I don't currently have. Can I get that ahead of time? Can I get that now? Is it an extra stamp in the passport? What do you recommend?
2. I think the website says there's a couple days turn around for the dependent Non-O. Has anyone experienced this before? We're planning on staying there a week just in case.
