As a female that did this for the first time this year, once you get over the initial stuff leading up to the IO visit it's pretty simple. They will either call you to say your visa is ready, OR you just go to the imm office on the date on your passport book to get the stamp. Then you do the 90- day report which starts 90 days from the start of your extention stamp date. FYI, you can do the 90 day report a few days before or after that date, check the website for the exact number of days. You've got all the hard stuff done, good for you!

It's unique for each individual. Honestly, worst treatment for me has come from other foreigners. Government jobs in my home country are boring for workers and talk to many people that don't understand process/ language. Same same.

Basically, all the documents you submitted initially for the non-imm O visa from your home country have to be re-verified and translated into Thai in order to update the Thai marriage database for your spouse. At least that's how I understand it.

I had to do this with my US marriage to my Thai husband. I got my US marriage certificate verified with a statement saying we are still married by the US embassy. I used a lawyer service for the translation service. Then I went through the MFA to verify document translation, then took those to the Amphur for them to verify and update the Thai database for my spouse to say he is married. Once this was complete I went to the Thai immigration office to extend for 30 days, they contacted us during that time to do a home visit to verify we are married and living together, also needed witnesses present with Thai ID cards. Then they approved my marriage visa and I just do 90-day check ins. Hope this helps!

. I submitted online and will see how that goes. For those asking for more details, my passport is US and I am living in Chiang Mai. I have about 10 days before my report is due, I know that they have leniency for up to 5 days after so I expect that to be plenty of time despite the current delays in processing on immigration's end. My TM30 is current and on file with immigration so I don't anticipate there being an issue with that. Again, thank you to everyone who helped and gave me extra information, you all are fantastic!! 🙂
