Yes I agree, but I can't see how those matters have anything to do with immigration officers carrying out tax assessments on retirees obtaining annual extensions. What is most definitely on the rise is the number of expats spreading bullshit on Facebook! 👍👍

Another silly scenario. Most retirees are on pensions and have no assessable income so hence no tax return. You really think immigration will start assessing retirees? Somehow I can't see immigration wanting to take on additional tasks to further complicate what they do now, especially when it's not even part of their job description! Try again!

I'm in Bangkok, I always do it by mail. Too far to hike out to CW for a five minute task

So why isn't the young woman's company organising her visa. That way she wouldn't have been scammed. I'm retired, stopped work at 48 after amassing a large property portfolio. So I gross $12,000 per week, and strangely enough I can struggle down to the immigration office sacrificing an hour of my time to effect an extension. It really is very easy

I'm only referring to retirees who can't fill in a couple of forms, not companies who employ foreigners.

Another one of those "standing in line" quoters. You've listened to too much Facebook crap and believed it. I make an appointment at a designated time, and I am attended to at that time. I don't join any line and I don't stand. I didn't realise Bezos, Beckham or Zuckerberg were living in Thailand these days. Do you also need an agent to wipe your backside or have you retained that capability?

But most people get a "certificate of residency" from immigration in order to open a bank account or get a driver's licence. So a non-immigrant can still be a certified resident

DTV is different because they're not issued by Thai Immigration
