I have the elite visa and no background check was required. To the best of my knowledge all checks are done internally with Thai Immigration. If you contact the Thailand Privilege staff they can help you with all your questions.

Yes, you can cancel it if no payment was made. Although any application fee may not be reimbursable. Contact their customer service staff. They are helpful.

The states does not have a caregiver type visa unless a person is intending on working as a caregiver permanently, that is the EB-3 visa. To travel there as you suggest, your wife would need apply for a B1 or B2 visa with a stipulation she is traveling there as a temporary care giver. Either way, she would have to meet all the requirements for either visa type.

15FEB2024 to 13AUG2024 is called a visa validity date. She has this timeframe only, to enter the states. Once she enters the visa will expire 10JUL2028. Hope this helps.

This is 100% correct. Any cash or monetary instruments to include, travelers checks, personal checks, bank checks, and money orders. Persons are required to complete FinCen form 105 prior to departure.
