Anonymous participant which one are you applying from? you mention IRS so I assume USA? 3 months ago I did it via LA location and soft power, all I had to provide was 1 page of my bank balance, 1 letter of soft power (botox treatment) and approved. Thank goodness mine was easy.

I was under the impression even with a marriage visa it's nearly impossible to get citizenship, or just about damn hard. While duration of stay in Thailand is one of the requirements, you also need to speak the language.

i'm curious what the long sighted version of how a DTV would be not a good idea/expensive.

you're worried about what will happen 5 years from now? curiously, why is it a point of importance? what do you think could happen?

the visa ends, that's it, what else could possibly happen?

@Rolf ********
im always amazed at how strict some people are calling 'fraud! fraud! breaking the law!' when either the law itself doesn't seem to care, or is even complicit about allowing it.

TM30 is required - ..apparently. In 9 years doing visa extensions I was never once asked for it - at the immigration office.

OR, get a hair loss/hair strengthening 6 month bi-weekly treatment for 1500 thb each treatment, and apply via soft power.

I got denied TWICE back to back on a tourist visa (and lost the fees) because I had an extra duplicate number on the passport field that i missed ..twice.

do you lose the visa fee when you are rejected?

DTV lets you stay 180 days each time, u can then literally fly out and back again and you get another 180 days. Valid for 5 years. Way better than a student visa and likely cheaper too once you factor the cost of whatever course.
