We attempted a couple times to ask our landlord to file the TM30. She didn’t. It was about a month after we moved in that we ended up filing it. We did use our visa agent to do it because we didn’t want to take the risk of getting fined trying to do it ourselves, which seems very likely we would have had to pay.

I can sympathize. Both my knees are in need of replacement but I’m going to see if PRP treatment can help in the meantime until I can get the surgery. We moved to Pattaya recently and will be seeing an orthopedist next week to get an assessment. I hope you find a solution for your gf.

I have pretty advanced osteoarthritis and I so wish CBD helped but it doesn’t. I was in the cannabis industry in the US for many years and tried many different products but unfortunately none worked to help my knee pain. But it’s great for so many other pain, especially when paired with THC.

I’m one that believes changing your diet and what you consume can definitely have a positive outcome on your physical health. However, I do not understand how carnivore or any diet can “cure” osteoarthritis, which is what I have and maybe what the OP’s gf has as well. I think if it’s caught early on, it could be somewhat reversed but I just have a hard time believing if someone who is almost 60 and has had years of knee pain can have it cured by any diet. I have a good understanding of carnivore and several other diets such as keto that can be great for curing many physical ailments. So I don’t discount your statement entirely.

If given the choice, is it cheaper to go with a multi-entry retirement visa or purchase the re-entry stamp? I’m thinking I might be traveling out of Thailand maybe once every couple months, so perhaps 3-4 times per year.

My personal situation requires a bit more documentation for the online application. Nothing too difficult, just kind of a hassle.

We initially thought about Hua Hin but then decided on Jomtien, near Pattaya. So many beautiful areas to choose 😊

Yes, you can do that. And that’s what my husband and I will be doing. You’ll hear many people tell you not to waste money on an agent. But it’s totally up to you as an individual how you want to handle getting your retirement visa.

Personally, I felt the hoops I had to jump through to apply online was slightly more involved than going to Thailand and applying for the visa there. But that’s my own personal opinion.
