further to your and the other Moderator's replies, and on a related matter to my original post, if I renew my extension of stay based on my Thai kids (Non-Imm 'O' visa based on my kids originally) in a North-Eastern province, can I then use this extension of stay to get a work permit in, for example, a Southern province?

P.S. I will apply for and hopefully receive the extension BEFORE I even consider moving elsewhere. Just trying to figure out if I will have problems down the road in the event that I have to move for work. Thanks for both of your replies so far,

and James Miller. 😊

How long are you actually permitted to move alone to another province for if the reason for moving is for work, which pays a salary to allow me to provide for my dependants? I ask because if I have to move, it will be a while before my family can join me due to things like being in the middle of a school term, rental contract etc etc Surely even Immigration allow a certain amount of leeway in cases like this. 😯

@Benjamin *****

What about interviews (interrogations?) with neigbours? Updated Kor Ror 2's? :)

@Tod ********

Just an aside. I'd love to know your thinking on this. Isn't it just as easy, if not easier, to get the extension based on a half-Thai child than a Thai wife? When I say easy, I don't really mean easy, but you know what I mean. :)

Thanks a million,

What if one moved from amnesty to an initial Non-Imm 'O' visa based on kids in September, and subsequently applied for the 12-month extension last week, and is presently "under consideration". When should the 90-day report be done?

Best of luck Richa. Like I said, it will depend on both the Labour Office and Immigration in your area. Some do. Some don't.

If they cancel the work permit on October 7, but make it effective November 2, it might be ok. Depends on the Labour Office and the Immigration Office you are doing it at. Some insist on it being done on the actual day, not in advance.

I could be wrong, and the experts can tell you, but I think the cancellation of the work permit and the extension of stay it is based on, and the new work permit and the extension of stay applications should both be done on the same day. Otherwise, there could be problems. Let's hear from

and the other guys who know more than I.
