@Cris *****

- true.. interesting point actually it seems clear to me that they must shread everything because otherwise why would they want the same old paperwork over and over 🙄

@Max ************

- which IO do you go to?

You clearly don't know what you are talking about, each office is different you only need to read the comments...this thread was about the treatment imposed by officials at Korat office and FYI the marriage wasn't in Korat province AND we got that part of the requirements on the list.

Korat Immigration Office make things up on the fly adding difficulties deliberately because they are trying to make your life as difficult as possible...if you don't understand why then you choose to ignore the obvious... it's corruption and only about back handers being received from the Agencies... that's a fact...there is no justification whatsoever for the way they are treating expats at this office and if you actually bother to read all the comments you will see many others either agreeing with this statement or indicating an agreement with a like.

You are clearly living in a different part of the country if you think it's a breeze 🙄

@Rod ********

- you didn't answer the question... what office is it...if they are taking the munchies then I'm sure they are accepting money too 🙄

@Max ************

- makes ZERO difference... it's all about the bribe money and nothing else 🙄

@Rod ********

- which office are you using... it's nothing like you describe at Korat Immigration...in fact they make up further documents on the fly that's not on their list 🤬

@Cris *****

- understand... I'm going to do what I said and see what happens... they either back down or get an official complaint lodged against them.

I'm going to keep my cool and question everything they ask for, if it's not on their list my first question will be 'why are you asking for this when it's not on your list?' I will then state as it's not on your list I don't need to provide it and therefore I won't. If they make veiled threats to me they will get them back... I'm already sick of it as I said people should start making complaints and not back down...but I guess most are too scared to do that. I'll probably get kicked out but maybe it won't be a bad thing in the long term 🙄🤬

@Derek ****

- it's about the money they get from the agencies it's as simple as that 🤬🤬🤬

@Damien *******

- one word... CORRECT!

@Ally ***********

- do you use Korat Immigration?

It's nothing like you suggest. I went in there, got their list and asked questions prior to the application. They made things up and deliberately made it a complete nightmare...why?... because they can. They are corrupt and bent it's all about pushing you to use an agency so they get their backhanders 🤬🤬🤬

@Lance *******

- they are corrupt and it's obvious they want you to use an agency so they get the backhanders 🤬🤬🤬🤬
