Right! This site has helped me a lot Tod so happy to give something back. Luckily my wife was with me.

Actually they didn't ask her to sign the marriage cert but I'm sure it's better to do it just in case. Yes a simple letter in Thai.

yes you can apply in the morning 10-11.30 or in the afternoon 1.30-3. either way you will collect the next day between 1.30-3.

I think it's advisable to hand in the application in the morning because in the afternoon you have the collectors...

No she didn't have to sign them but she had to write a sponsors letter.

, just to complicate things I have a new job about to start and will have docs for work permit. however I'm guessing i cannot get that on 60 day visit family, and even if I could the work permit itself would only be 60 days max.

So I'm thinking of going to savannaket and getting the ME non O based on marriage and i think it solves all my problems except I have to throw a load of cash down the drain which I don't have right now but hey it's only money right?

No I'm not sure I last went years ago... Thanks

@Tod ********

, U have to visit the UK at the time of renewal, If I changed the visa to an ME Non O based on marriage in Birmingham could I do that without the 400k do you know or is that only Savvanaket?

Thanks

@Tod ********

muchos appreciatos

Asking for a friend. What if a person didn't actually have any income, could they still get the letter?

Wow! I did not know that! My employer is late to pay that's the problem... amazing. Is this complicated in any way by leaving the country during this 60 day period or would that be unaffected?
