If you decide to renew just make sure to carry your old passport as well

You should do a new tm30 once back in your house.

You can do it online if your house is registered with immigration which gives you a login.

Better safe than sorry 🤷‍♂️

If you book with jetstar you can get the package with choose your seats,pick a meal and 20 kg luggage plus 7kg carry on and the option to change flights.

I just changed twice and it depends on your return flight cost. The first change I made cost $90 aud fee but the second cost the $90 fee plus $120 fare cost difference which is still less than what you said

Same situation after getting the "contact the branch within 30 days" notification on the app.

After the second day( not 30) my account was frozen as was the app .

Got ticket at the bank at 2pm and could see alot of foreigners before me.

Long story short I had to resubmit all my documents

Non o visa,phone certificate from true,marriage certificate,bann number book ,wifes i.d etc etc.

Left the bank at 7pm.

My app is back up and running but still cannot access funds they said for a week and to expect a phone call to also confirm im real.

Apparently some people have no available funds other than their frozen accounts and cant even buy food etc.

It is very frustrating and inconvenient for sure.

I ended up sending money with wise to my wifes a/c from my overseas a/c to pay some bills & shopping etc here until i can access my $$ in a week.

I felt sorry for the staff who are being inundated and some people were very angry & rude.

Be polite and calm,its not the staff/tellers fault,alot of staff are having to work longer hours because of this,the poor girl who was very helpful had worked until 10pm the night before and i left at 7pm and there was still a few left. It takes about an hour+ for each person .

As some have mentioned I also had done this a few months ago and got frozen again.

Hopefully this is the last of it and they weed out the scammers 🤷‍♂️.

Have a good evening all 👍🏻🍺

E Visa online ,embassy in Canberra or consulate in Sydney.

I had mine in 8 business days.

Make sure you select the payment tab on the application.

90 day non o visa then do the rest in thailand.
