Troy Rockwell Stamping an unnecessary arrival chop (for us citizen) right in middle of passport. Agents making pen marks on your data page because they use your passport as a writing surface to mark boarding passes.

Seems Europe and MidEast airlines are more strict flying from Japan TPE, Korea, SIN I have only been asked a few times. At most had to sign a statement that I am responsible for repatriation cost if denied entry (obvious).

I have flown to Thailand on one-way tickets dozens of times. Thai immigration never asked, more that 23 years.

Then if you “show money” they can still ignore it deport the suspect with passport stamped insufficient funds anyway.

Seems like a weird requirement but I did it by selfie last year. No issue.

@Mark ******

Def not needed for a first time visitor.

Work gives a route to PR too.

Elite Visa best for under 50. Time flies

I have OA since December 2020 they only stamp me in until the date my insurance expires. Last time at CNX airport I only got 6 more months. The insurance expiration was written on the visa sticker. This year it is on my e visa. I want to do anotheryear/ stitch together (buy another year insurance that overlaps by one more day) and see if I can get another 12 months out of my current visa and enter later this year. I don’t know if it will work 🤷‍♂️.

Last week airline didn’t check anything there was a vaccination certificate check prior to approaching the immigration arrival counters
