From where have you been "hearing these issues"? Your head?

Why did you tell them about your "government job"??? That blows my mind why you would reveal that. You brought this on yourself. You should have just gone with soft power. Jesus.

Usually applications are cancelled for technical reasons, like incorrect information or failure to provide requested documents. Regardless, they don't have to tell you the reason. It's not the same as having your application being rejected, which would mean you're ineligible for the visa. So, you can try again but I recommend a different embassy.

Anonymous participant 563 The application was cancelled. No visa was ever granted.

That's a nice remark. Wish mine said that too as I'm a remote worker as well.

You and your "partner" are neither related nor considered each other's next of kin. Not possible.

Nice story but it would have been even smoother if you had printed out the PDF of the visa.

I wouldn't worry about as it doesn't actually change anything. You would still have to get a new passport well before December 2029. Likely 6 months before.

There's nothing to do. I've reentered 5 times already and always get a new 180 day stamp. I don't stay more than a month in Thailand.
