Access to the high level officer, via an agent, is corruption etc but its still a legal extension if the officer is empowered.

It's can be legal while corruption will not be proved. In such paradigm current changes will not help to avoid illegal extensions (because of corruption). Police should work and understanding of punishment inevitability will give the result.

No matter what rules are developed, agents can circumvent them - but only if corrupt IOs and/or bank staff cooperate.

 

The solution is not hard to understand, there is just no political will to implement it.

 

1. Outlaw Visa agents and enforce this.

 

2. Dismiss corrupt IOs.

 

 

I like both of these suggestions.  #2 would be an order of magnitude more difficult to do, but doing #1 would help a bit with #2.

There is no paper trials for any body to check the bank account paperwork after a extension is given. The requirement is a copy of the front page and the page the 3 months is shown but there is nothing to show the page for the 3 months is the same book as the front page with the name on (can just issue a book with the name on it and copy any bodies 3 month page) so it is not easy to do a check at a later date

 

The way round this would be a requirement of bank statements with the name and account number on it and signed off by the bank

It is only a legal extension if per the Immigration Act the IMM officer receives no more than 2000 baht for his/her efforts.

Simple really, grant 5 year temporary settlement visas in the home country, not here in LOS.  Require all the financials/police checks etc on application (by post and  if necessary interview.) Scrap the difference between a visa based on marriage or retirement,  //

So in short you want remove O-A and Extensions, and force everyone to Elite Visa …? :shock1:

1,900 baht  sounds better to me.

and get people to do there jobs,  they are paid to do.

 

they will continue to flee victims for as long as they possibly can, a flat rate with no other commitments will close chance to extort.

and make it so applicants can seek extension in any immigration without fuss

Every Imm office i have ever used - a total of 4 different ones over the years - has physically examined the original bank book as well as asking for a copy.
