What is an artist residency? Is this something that is done remotely?

expect it to take weeks.

Anonymous participant I am assuming if you're able to work remotely, You are working on translating text, i didn't assume books but legal and technical documents. But i guess you could be working remotely as a translator live in calls?

Most certainly you don't intend to translate in person in Thailand.

Anonymous participant it’s strange that you can’t show a body of work as a translator. It’s definitely a legitimate line of work which I you could show physical examples (I guess depending on NDA and privacy)

I don’t doubt perpetual travellers exist, and maybe it’s my misunderstanding but most countries require citizens to be tax residents unless they can show they are tax residences elsewhere.

If you are unsure though, soft power would be a good work around for you

Sounds pretty strange. You should be a tax resident somewhere.

I don’t understand how your line of work can’t be well represented because you only stay 3 months at a time in each country? Very curious what line of work.

Sounds like you’ll get it. Just start submitting paperwork and when they ask for more just keep submitting more.

That’s a nice write up, surprised they deported you the first time but good you got it sorted.

Was your ED visa legit? I assume Thai school? Did they test your Thai? Or ?

You didn’t leave very much time. Most reports say 2-4 weeks.

Depends where the money is coming from. If you’ve been getting paid in Thailand, from Thailand it would be red flags. But , I used a Thai bank account all legit and it was no issue, but they did ask follow up questions to make sure I wasn’t working illegally.
