Why was my wife's US visitor visa application denied despite strong documentation?

Nika ********

Why a 2 year visitor visa? Apply for a spousal visa. It takes longer but is more readily approved.

What are the options for relocating to Thailand as a refugee and obtaining long-term residency or citizenship?

Nika ********

If you have the money check out a thailand elite visa for 5 to 20 years. They re very expensive but if you have a business it's a lucrative choice..if you need citizenship it's better to choose another country.

What can I do about a rental contract I didn't sign and issues obtaining a TM30 in Thailand?

Nika ********

Your thai friend signed for you or did you sign?

They must give you a TM30 if they dont want to.do.it go and speak to tourist police..many small businesses do not understand this is N obligation..also get copy of your lease and have it interpreted by a reputable friend.

Can my son extend his stay in Thailand by marrying his Thai girlfriend?

Nika ********

Marriage.doesnt help at all..he still needs to apply for the same.visas as everyone else

If his girlfriend is famous he may have some.sway with her family. He should.live here for a few months and get legal advice to make this decision.

Nika ********

Yes living costs in Laos and Burma.are higher. Cambodia is cheaper but doesnt have the same standards of amenities,.hospitals dentists, pharmacies, clinics etc..so you would.gonto Thailand for that, again raising costs.

Nika ********

Most of us have no tax problems or immigration issues..pollution in Bangkok and chiangmai, no more than most other cities.. if you live on the coast or an island it's much better..food, accommodation, friendly people great climate. I've lived in Burma, Cambodia and Laos..more expensive but also lovely. Some people.love Vietnam.
