Title: what checks do the immigration make
Post by: ban1216 on August 28, 2013, 09:05:41 PM
Ok so what checks are the immigration actually doing in the 30 days after i aply for my 12 month extension on my non immigrant o marriage visa ??
is it just background checks and stuff like this with the embassy ,do they check all the information given in the forms ,do they verify the funds in bank even though i have taken the written bank confirmation allready? are they checking my wifes credentials?
i hate all this waiting around

I wouldn't worry.
I have never met anybody that has been turned down after they have been checked out by the local Immigration and have been given the 30 day stamp.  :)

Sorry.......apart from one guy that got turned down for using the same photos from the previous year and was asked to supply new photos by the Bangkok Immigration.
So for anybody re-applying the 2nd year,make sure you don't use old photos and have new photo's each year   :)

Don't believe that. This past April they accepted a 7 year old photo of the wife and I laying together on our bed when we were in Chiang Mai. redman
