it was fixed when Trump was President. Creepy Joe rescinded all his policies. Now that it's an election year Creepy Joe wants to do something about it. The bill he proposed for the border is pure bs. The bulk of the money goes towards more judges and people to process illegals and not to actually secure the border. Also he already has the power to shut down the border.
it depends. The hardest part is proving you have a genuine marraige and a means of support. I will be applying for an immigrant visa for my Thai wife. We have text messages dating back to 2021. Been married living together in Thailand for over a year. Plenty of photos of us together at different places in Thailand and with family and friends. But I digress, tourist visas will generally be hard for a Thai to get.
Unfortunately Asia, especially SE Asia has a bad rap. When I was stationed in South Korea in the late 80's a lot of bar girls married American military people and once they got their green card a lot left their husband's. That is the reputation SE Asia has with American Embassys. She has to prove that she will return to Thailand. A job, property, kids, a bank account, etc, etc.
Ross Thompson let's be serious, you don't have to be a brain surgeon to figure out what will happen depending on how long the overstay is. There have been questions asked in here that defy common sense. I didn't know much about the culture or requirements to stay. I got a lot of information off the Thai Embassy website and just by going to reliable sites on Google. We should expect someone to do a little bit if their own research and then ask questions. When you get stupid post like "is it hot in Thailand" or "how many pair of underwear should I bring", then maybe they should stay home instead.
