Why was my 90-day online reporting rejected this time?

@Gerald *******
 oh that is different from what it says! Mine is actually due on 28 December, 12 days from now, but with holidays coming I decided to do it early. I'll just pop to Jomtien later this week (NOT FRIDAY!) Plus the email specifically said its because it is my first 90 day report since last arriving in Thailand

Funny enough I just had the same, from Jomtien. It's my first 90-day report since returning from a long weekend in Penang. As usual I did it on-line. They rejected it because my first one after returning has to be in person.

1. Address doesn't have to be permanent, as such. A one month booking a hotel will confirm in writing will suffice. It also gives you time to look around.

2. After one night, ask hotel to confirm they've done TM30. Take the booking confirmation to Immigration to get a Residency cert.

3. Take Residency cert to bank to open account

What are the requirements and timelines for extending a Non-O marriage visa in Thailand?
Tim *********
@Peter *********
 I agree that is possible. Depends in the IO and the officer on the day. If the OP is changing the method to monthly and can show they meet that requirement, and have done for the previous 12 months, then I think it is worth a try. Worst case scenario is they again use an agenth
