Will a drink driving conviction affect my ability to obtain a retirement visa in Thailand?

Brad *******

There’s a Canadian who has been living here for years who murdered his mom. He stabbed her a bunch of times and then slit her throat. Then he went to prison in Canada for many years before moving here. The Thai government knows about it and so do all the expats. I think that’s worse than a DUI conviction.

How Can a Thai National Successfully Obtain a US Tourist Visa After a Denial?

Brad *******

Back in 2006 my wife got approved for a 10 year tour visa and we were married. No one could believe it. It does happen and it depends on how well the interview, if they dress appropriately, and if they have a history of travel to other countries.

I have five successful franchises in the US and rental properties. This is what I found out. I’m not paying tax in Thailand. I’m enjoying life here. I wouldn’t do business here and that’s different if you are. We are not talking about that.

And I don’t know you either.

You must’ve trotted into the tax office and volunteered!

@Robert *****

it’s all a scare tactic. Been here since 99 and I don’t know what all the fuss is about.

@Jason *******

I thought the same thing. Was in the gym every day and running a couple hours a day and doing martial arts 4 days a week. The next thing I knew I was bedridden for two years. You never know when things are going to go south.

@Ken ******

don’t argue with kids who have been here a few years. I’ve been here since 1999. Things happen all the time and just because some backpacker who’s been here since 2018 who thinks he’s Captain Thailand, doesn’t mean he is right.
