30 days is definitely not enough time, unless he already has a very good agent already lined up.

Just get an onward ticket, either real or throw away…don’t destroy your plans for $10-50.

and, btw, when I opened TWO banks accounts in Thailand, they insisted upon seeing both my passport and my state ID. Thank you for reminding me of one of the many potential issues she would have faced with the mismatched IDs. I had previously warned her that without straightening out her records, she could have unforeseen issues. I completely forgot about the Thai bank accounts. Thank you for unintentionally proving my point. 🤣🤣🤣

I’m talking about her US accounts. What Thailand does is wholly irrelevant. 🤣🤣🤣

At least Americans apparently have basic reading comprehension. Let me explain as if were 5 years old. Then, I’m finished. She has the help she needs, so this debate is unnecessary.

She outlined her situation regarding CURRENT bank accounts. THOSE accounts are the issue. They are in the U.S.. What Thailand will do does not matter. The current accounts are using her married name.

คุณเข้าใจไหมคะ?

she stated that she changed the name associated with her SS#, which means, amongst other things, her taxes are filed under that name and her financials are under that name. That’s not an “automatic” name change due to marriage. One needs to make such changes. From what she has stated, she changed her name on most documents and in accounts and did not change her passport. Yes, a passport is SUPPOSED TO BE one’s legal name. That’s what I said. 🤣🤣🤣

my ex and I hyphenated (obviously not my fb name). We both chose to keep our names post-divorce due to our children. If you’re planning to move overseas, the best thing to do is to get all your documents in order before you leave. This might not be the only issue you might otherwise face. I was shocked at the number of last-minute things that came up and I didn’t even need to worry about a name change :-). Sounds like you’re making the best decision. Best of luck to you!

her legal name is her married name. One cannot open an account with any name other than one’s legal name.
