@Noelle ********

congratulations!

@Dave ********

thanks. Will call that number tomorrow when we land

@Dave ********

will try that again. Last two times I called the numbers listed, it went into a recording and that was that. Will try another time that's more in the middle of their working day instead of them opening hours and hour to get someone English speaking

Thank you

Thanks! Since we're flying in specifically for the visa stamp they've asked to submit the latest TDAC as well as the PDF of all pages of passport showing the latest entry stamp. Then they'll allow us an appointment and the stamp the visa. I'm asking the duration from when we land and submit the PDFs to when we might be able to leave with the LTR stamped coz I'm on a tight time line and may need to travel out of thailand urgently.

Can LTR visa be issued electronically?

I forgot to mention that we have a passport that allows visa-free entry to Thailand for 60days.

What we want is the LTR visa (5yr). Can that be issued via e-Visa? Coz the LTR BOI website only provides two options: Collect it from BKK personally, or from a Royal Thai Consulate office in your own country.

We prefer BKK option since we were going to be there in November anyway

@Jim *******

yes my funds are passive coz I own US 10yr treasuries and 30yr Munis and a few Bank CDs

This is brilliant!! I will try to do the same

@Jim *******

, and that might do the trick. It clearly seems like the case of misinterpretation of what I provide, or insufficient detailed explanation like you've provided. You've given me hope!!!

I got the exact same email--"go pound sand" and we wont tell you why we rejected your application :-) Pathetic!

We are applying for the LTR (Wealthy Pensioner)

@Kim *********

wow, that's unfortunate. So could you share the visa agency that helped you eventually? And are you through with the LTR successfully or still slogging through it?
