New life, new start don't waste your money. Buy what you need when you need it over here--A lot cheaper too.

I guess a lot would depend on what rate you got when you changed into THB and when you did it.

No problem been using non -imm for years myself for now she is 22 I get a Non -Imm O Family, same rules apply. Money etc.

Good job I said something. It has given you plenty to opine on. If I had said nothing nobody would have had the benefit of you opinion of my opinion. So on the other hand would you have even bothered to reply to him if I hadn't?

@Wylie ******

I answered his questions with questions which I thought was logical, clearly you don't. The simple answer would have been no but would that actually have answered anything? No..

I am in Pattaya and hat is where my guy is.

This happens a great many times. There are a lot of requirements to meet to get the required visa and I know 3 or 4 that have been trying for quite some time. Some will never get one as attitude goes a very long way and some just do meet the criteria. There is a very good agent in Pattaya and he has a no visa no pay policy. I have knownhim for over 20 years, Costly but good.

Thank you Barabas for the long weekend.

Then you are doing the right thing but you should be telling us a bit about the background? I dare bet that there are a few on this site that thought they were married and weren't. Me for one. Bride price is supposed to be used to get something for the couple not to keep fot themeselves. Of course all things depend on her familly and the circumstances of their meeting etc. Please seek to find out if there are kids in the picture somewhere because they are very good at hiding them. If by chance there is somethingon the way do nothing until after the event just to be sure. A pre-nuptual is a very good idea too. Not to surprisingly a great many of them will nit agree to one and that is an excellent indicator.

Are you supporting his decision or is time he left the nest? You have said nothing about the circumstances, his age and whether he has any means to support himself. Let alone anything about whether she has children and whether or not a bride price has been discussed and who is going to pay at it and what is being done with it? Is he not capable of asking these questions himself?
