@Rex *****

you are right. He will not get a fine. But they could give him an overstay stamp in the passport, depending on the mood of the IO.

@Heather *********

that depends where you want to apply. But I will let an admin answer that.

No. That's only for if you have a thai spouse. You can apply for non o based on being over 50.

How was he allowed in with a canceled visa? The visa sticker would have a marking or written/stamped "used" on top. Do you in stead mean he had an extension from a non b with a reentry permit? A stamp from an immigration office that is. In that case maybe it wasn't actually cancelled, and he would be on overstay now. Even though they stamped him in again, the base for that stamp was no longer valid, if he did not work anymore.

But why did they issue a non o-a for only three months is a good question

To get that second year you have to exit and reenter before the actual visa is expired.

No they wont because your visa is already expired at 19th october this year and you won't get anymore stamps out of it. You can keep your current stamp alive with reentry permits, but you will not get any longer stay than you already have on it now.

It just cost a fair bit more to get now.. But it is roughly the same as the old one.

@Tod ********

maybe that's the case. They did say they would have accepted it for extending based on over 50 though. But the amount was to small per transfer. But being Danish (from Denmark) he could not get that notary letter. As mentioned they do make an alternative one now. And that was accepted.

Btw they did not make a home visit this year for me and my wife. They did that the previous couple of years.
