Id like to apply for my Tax Id Number (TIN) to withdraw my salary from Upwork. I called around the revenue departments and they couldn’t understand me as they don’t speak English. What should I do? Please advise me 🙏

Hi. Does anyone have any recent experience of living in the Philippines and came make some positive/negative comparisons to living in the Thailand? How do costs and standards of living compare? I’m quite interested in areas outside of the main cities. I’m actually in Bohol, Philippines and considering a move to Thailand

I would rather hear from people who have actual experience rather than just thoughts or theories about it.

Thank you

Finally made it through quarantine and I'm trying check in for my flight from BKK, but the airline's website says I am not verified with the Mor Prom app. I downloaded the app but it's in Thai language. Is it necessary that I use that app or do I simple go to the airport and check in at the counter?

Just to let people know, I went to Tak Immigration today (Wednesday, September 30th) with my "under consideration" stamp.

Unfortunately, I only got until October 26th for my official extension of stay stamp.

The clerks in that office don't speak a lot of English, so I couldn't get much information out of them. However, my sense is that they are waiting for official instructions from the central immigration office .

The national authorities may have announced this new policy, but the actual nuts and bolts about implementing it haven't reached the regional offices yet. At least, this new policy is not official in Tak/Mae Sot as of September 30th.

I tried to find out when it might become official, but, again, we ran into the language barrier. Nobody could answer any of my questions.

Hopefully this confusion will be straightened out by the time other people return with their "under consideration" stamps, but I don't know when that might be.

DETAILS:

Canadian passport

Tak Immigration Office (Mae Sot)

- Entered Thailand on a 30-day visa exemption

- Received one 30-day extension

- On amnesty since the extension expired

- Applied for 30-day extension with embassy letter

- Received "under consideration" stamp with instructions to return on September 30th.

- Returned on September 30th and was given an extension of stay stamp until October 26th.

-No information as yet if/when I will be able to return and get a new stamp dated for November 30th.
