Sorry I guess I didn't make myself totally clear but I was talking about marrying a Thai lady. Not a US citizen. I saw that if the child is less than 16 there is no 5-year limit but I don't know for sure. Thanks.

most likely because you have a lot of deductions. But the US government does charge tax on social security and income over $25,000 per year. I wrote a check for $4,000 this year and my tax rate came out to 10%. No, I didn't like writing the check but that's the rules. You take money out of your retirement account and it's over $25,000. You're going to pay tax on it. It's not going to change so you might as well just get used to it.

What was that big deal but leaving Bangkok headed for bkk airport I paid for the whole trip but all he gave me was a black token. So I got scammed for a little bit of money but when he gave me the black token I knew something was weird about it, and should have said something. But I was in a hurry. Scammed into BTS station lol. The worst part was I had to wait for the whole line to go through before I finally put the token in. There's always one of us isn't there?

I actually have an application online for the E Visa for 60 days. But I'm trying to sell my motor coach and my Jeep and so I don't have a specific date yet.

My other issue is they want where you're going to be staying. My plan was to get a hotel for a week and then search for a condo one there how do I get around that?

Thanks.

Somewhat rude but they're correct. You cannot stay in Thailand for 32 days unless you have the 60 day or greater Visa. You can extend the 30 day that you get when entering the country while there for a total of 60 days. Or from your home country you can apply for a 60-day tourist visa. That would be the correct way for you to do that. At least based on the understanding that I have at this point. It sounds like it takes 3 to 4 business weeks to return and you have to have your flight information as well as your lodging accommodations.
