My daughter (22), a dual Thai and Australian citizen will be graduating about this time next year (2026) from an Australian University.

To attend the ceremony, we would need a visa for my Thai wife (we are all permanent residents since 2010 in Japan, legally married for 25 years).

People (former colleagues from my employment before I retired) with Thai wives, were telling me it may take months to get a visa for my wife (she has never been to Australia). We would need a 2 weeks visa for her, I have Australian passport.

Hello

I have a situation I hope I can be helped with. I've already done 1 border run and a second 30 day extension. My visa expires Feb 17. My wife's son is getting his Visa and had his interview this past Monday. We were asked for more paperwork which is now in transit. Customs retained his passport and he was told if this paperwork is sufficient his passport along with his Visa will be returned and he would be accepted into America. The paperwork isn't the problem. reliable sources assured me that what I'm getting is more than sufficient. My issue is whether or not it will happen before Feb 17 in which case there will be no issues. My legal advisor said I should go to immigration in Chiang Mai with my paperwork from the embassy and ask for a 2 week extension so as to comply with customs and not have any troubles. She also stated that this is a familiar scenario with customs and should not be a problem. Any advice on my issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Hi everyone💁‍♀️

My husband and I live in Thailand, he has a work permit. Can I apply for a family reunification visa? ( It's NON -O???) Do you know how much it costs? and what is needed besides the marriage certificate?

Thanks in advance🙏
