Hi all..Really appreciate any advice on the following - I am 60, retired, financially well Canadian. Applied for the O-non imgrant retirement visa from Canada and after submitting all of the docs and paid so much fees (incl 2 health insurance) didn't get too far. The Embasy asked for more docs based on their forms which I didn't see or know when I went though the on-line application. Now I am in Europe and plan to fly to Thailand Oct 1. I understand the visa 2 + 1 months, but wish to stay longer. What would be the best way to achieve this while within Thailand? I am keeping all of the health coverage, criminal checks, etc. Would love to here from westerners who are gone through this and got any long-term stay visas. Thanks all.

Hello , do you know an agency that can provide for the requirements? Please

Hi all. Any recommendations for a visa agent for a retirement visa in Bangkok? Costs too please.

DTV Success

I applied for the DTV at the Royal Thai Consulate in Vancouver. I used the remote worker option.

Submitted Passport Page, Photo, Copy of Driver's License as proof of residency, Most recent Bank Statement, and Letter of Employment verification.

About a week later they asked for my most recent Payroll Advice.

Next day they sent me the DTV.

DTV is happening. Now info on the official Thai E-Visa Website. [members only]

Who do you get to sign your Proof of Life document.

During the K1 interview for USA they said we had to resubmit birth certificate and translation. We don't have original; we used a copy we got from Amphur office and certified English translation (online company). I'm not sure what they want. I think maybe need to Certify the copy of birth certificate. How do I do that? Has anyone run into this issue? Is there a place in Udon Thani that can help?

So... an "Everything Else" question but how does a person go about getting a divorce?

I think it's amicable and nothing in dispute.

I have a bad hearing loss. Could a travel agent represent me to get my non visa 30 day extension? I'm 77yrs

Im here in retirement visa. I’m planning on going back to US mid-May to attend best friends wedding and be for a month Would love to get my Thai partner to be there with family and friends but I know I know not easy.

I think it’s about assets and perceived escape potential.

She owns property, homes, has teenage daughters she’s responsible for, job but not regular like corporate income. We’ve together a little less than a year - that may be a qualifying or disqualifying factor.

Don’t tell me it’s not easy I know - but maybe there is the right person to ask and maybe make it happen. Like an agency

Thanks
