Popular Post DrJack54 Posted September 18, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 18, 2020 OP, looks by your avatar your Oz. Obtain embassy letter for 30 day extension from Au embassy. If your over 50 an agent may suggest an extension based on retirement. If not may even suggest based on volunteering or marriage. If you decide to leave and are indeed from AU, I don't think you have a chance to obtain flight to Oz. Have you even made inquiries. Seriously you have left it very late. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it will be more, however the OP entered on a non-o so only needs extension. I asked him if he over 50 earlier. Extension based on retirement might be most easy for agent.

This is my plan that was confirmed as acceptable by a visit to Udon immigration last month while hedging my bets against either leaving for work or the now expired hope of an amnesty rollover. The OP should also check if his local Immigration office needs an updated kor ror song (extract of current marriage registration) and kor ror hah (name change certificate for Thai partner) if applicable. Some Immigration offices have validity issues with the former, ie. must be issued less than a month, on same week or (ridiculously) same day as extension application. Some Immigration offices also insist on the latter despite it not being applicable or even available for the Thai partner if they married before 2008.

Thank you. At this late stage of the game, does the 5 days make a hill of beans of difference? I read some posts by an applicant who applied for an extension a few weeks back being denied having it post-dated and 'losing' about 3 weeks but the post was not specific about what sort of entitlement their initial amnesty stay was based on.

natway09 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 If your visa expired in February not sure your amnesty stay is valid ? Am I right in saying that visas subject to amnesy must have been valid middle to end March.? Contact an agent, they advertise on here all the time, but you need to fix your 400,000 Bht as soon as possible.if not too late 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
