, the best of luck. You probably already know, but, it's good to be forearmed as to what the Amphur will want. In my case, I was told I needed the Village 'head man' as one of the witnesses & they also wanted the bio data in my passport translated & 'stamped' at Chaeng Wattana, however, as I said, every Amphur is different. Let us all know how the visa process goes at Suvannakhet if you get there before the 11th. Thanks.

@Ste***

, I'm off to apply for the same visa at Suvannakhet on the 11th of this month (all my docs are already in order). I'll report back on how the process goes when I finish it up on the 12th. All the best.

Thanks Tod & Lance. Always good to know there's alternatives 👍

Out of curiosity Tod, what are the others that will issue a non immigration O based on marriage visa with no proof of financials, other than Suvannakhet?

Very simple Duncan, the best avenue to ensure success is for you to act as a sponsor as from what I can gather you're an Australian citizen living abroad? The only hassle is the paperwork, however, you can apply online without having to go to VFS.

Dino Misenti Great news Dino, I'm a bit apprehensive as you were considering the frequency visa rules change & vary between different embassies and consulates.

@Ba***

, Thus I moved to Thailand!

And no guarantee of visa, yet, we import the destitute & impoverished, whilst, we let our elderly citizens suffer! Not right in my books.

No worries Wayne, if you've got any questions feel free to pm me. All the best fella.

Wayne, it's a f**king joke. It was easier for me to move to Thailand even though I earn th of my previous salary.
