If your wife gets a job here, you can get a visa based on her employment.

Where are you currently?

No, but if you are here too long, Immigration will start asking questions. You can't live here long-term on tourist visas.

@Ossi ********

the only person spreading false information here is you. See what Brandon wrote - it depends on the immigration office. And just like Peter, I haven't had to refile TM30s after going overseas and I've asked Chiang Mai Immigration multiple times if I had to and they said no.

And as for "it has been since many years," read this change in 2020. Not all immigration offices implemented this but the change was not having to refile a TM30.

@Tony ********

for CM, you can go whenever you want - just make sure you've got a printout of your TM30 along with the other requirements.

Where in Thailand?

@Ruth ******

I didn't make it about being American - read what op wrote - "here I am from in the United States, if you are an immigrant and don't try to learn English, people get mad at you."

@Bruce ********

I know not all Americans are judgemental tools but you prove that some are.

I spent a year in Thai school so can get by, but even if I didn't and didn't speak any Thai, it would still be none of your business nor concern. Stop being so judgemental of others and mind your own business.

Given you are clearly living here and trying to exploit the system, have you considered getting a proper long term visa instead? A proper long term visa is the solution to all your problems.
