At some point changing your sheets and you are doing maids work.

I wonder what's the distinction between work and a hobby.

I've heard of a group that caters to foreign women married to Thai men. It's a long shot, and not really your situation, but you might inquire there as well.

Well i asked how long it takes in Bangkok to get a 30 day extension. Can it be done from bkk on day 59 of the visa? Or maybe the is a cheaper way (eg 7 day extension)

Do they issue a card ID (like a credit card) or is it a stamp in your passport.

Jan Ströher no reason I could think of, but with all the comments of (seemingly) random denials, maybe someone knows of one.

This was more a question of curiosity and longer term planning. Currently just spending the summers in Thailand while kids are in school in US. Getting a 60 day visa from the Thai consulate in Houston each year. Since I do have a number of entries (15+ from 2010 onward) in my passport (mix of 30 day on arrival, and 60 day visas, plus one year long METV that was never needed), problems are always in the back of my mind, but I really don't expect any issues.

My only issue now is my son's US passport expires 2 days shy of being 6 months from our Thailand exit in Aug. He enters on Thai passport, so theoretically should not be a problem, but he travels with US passport, so rather than risk problems, will likely just renew it now.

@Robert ******

doesn't the agency issuing the visa help with reporting?
