Close your window and try again. If you continue to have trouble, first try rebooting. If still trouble, clear history and cookies, as Khalil mentioned and, if still trouble, try a different browser (or, if you don’t want to clear your cache...the cookies and browser...simply try another browser). Good luck.

Kind of bad news coming from people, but it’s really good you were told before arrival. It also makes sense, given what I’ve experienced regarding healthcare and doctors obviously wanting to make their own diagnosis. Best of luck to you.

no problem in the U.S. with proof of a local address (lease, utility bills, etc.) and a passport.

I wish I were there for the same reason. I came back to the U.S. for an emergency and got stuck. Back at the beginning of January 2020, my friends were saying, “I bet you’re glad you’re not back in Asia.” I said, “absolutely not! They’ll get this under control. We will not.” Meanwhile, I moved to the corner of the country that at least had a bit of sanity and muddled through after disaster at the very beginning.

if you are working for a U.S. company while in Thailand, you need to pay taxes in both the U.S. and Thailand, although you do get some reduction in your taxes due to paying the other. I have not yet needed to do it, so I don’t know the exact numbers, but, yes, you do need to pay taxes in both places. In terms of trading stocks, it gets more complicated. Capital gains is considered “unEARNED income”, so the rules may be slightly different. I have not researched it. However, unearned income was not the nature of the original question.

your interpretation of what the article says simply shows your complete lack of understanding of how ALL vaccines work. They're not useless.

I wonder how you'd feel if someone talked to one of your daughters' boyfriends that way about them?

These are the visas for which Americans are eligible.
