Judas Priest ! Getting a common sense answer from this group can be good or a complete pain in the ass ! To many pricks in here.

Best info I got was that there is a casino there

@Ron ******

as immigration said, I’ll just get a tourist visa and change it when I get back here. I know, sounds SUPER difficult

@Garrett **********

that’s pretty amazing, I am from the US and haven’t been back there in over 20 years never renewed any visa or extension at all

@Marty ********

I just got back from China, I was in a hurry to get my retirement extension so I used a law office in Hua Hin. They got it, I did all my 90 day reports, then moved and bought a house in Bangkok, went to CW for my new 90 day and file my new TM30. No problems.

I went two weeks early for my extension and was told by CW that I’m not in the system , to leave Thailand, get a new NON-O or tourist visa and then they will change it to the 1 year non O retirement extension

@John *********

not according to chaeng wattana. I need to leave the country then change it when I get back

@Garrett **********

my country of legal residency is Thailand

I currently have a non OA here in Thailand. But immigration told me of a mistake and they can’t renew it here. Chaeng Wattana says I need to leave the country, apply for the tourist visa or Non O visa, and then I can change it back to the non O retirement when I get back. Sorry if all the minutiae of my terminology is incorrect

Oh. And does anyone know if there are casinos there ?

I kinda have the same thing. No landlord though, we own our own house. Went in to file TM 30, no problems. After getting back home I realized that at immigration, they put in my address as when it’s actually . When I go to renew, I will make them aware and bring all the correct paperwork with me again
