Sigh , indeed the quality of air is worse  , my chest is feeling bruised a bit , my son is coughing for approx 5 days and my darling has severe headaches , something has changed abruptly to the worse lately .  We saw long stretched forest fires between Mae Teng and Chiangdao last weekend , together with the gradual air pollution in Ampoeh Muang Chiangmai ....enough said .

Hope a unexpected monsoon will blow over soon .......

Ok thanks Lite -beer , if thats the same it will not matter .

Anyway I just had a look at the pinned very much improved section of getting visas in the neighborhood,
I'm not up to date lately because had a couple of extensions and didn't had to travel around such .

Wondered if my mother who is a grandmother of Thai grand children is able to obtain any visa as non imm in
the neighborhood , just in case , its a different situation most have children or wife at this age but my mother
is just simple a grandmother , is it possible , if not guess try to sit it out till then .

thanks .

• Thanks Mario , wonder if its possible say 3 months before extension to top account for whats short on income , read somewhere once
  
• that for the combination method no time frame is needed , and can the money be taken out and before next extension again topped in the same repeated way?

• For the OA only in home country , what income etc you have to show to obtain ?
  
• 
  
• thanks again , its clearing me up .

Wonder how to obtain the O-A , what is needed for documents and where to obtain .

Because I might need to go this route or any route for my mother to extend her stay here , currently safe with
an extension of retirement . Things in Europe are getting worse exchange value wise and of austerity cutting
her social security 50% based on cheaper living standards , which can be a knocker if exchange rates will drop significantly further,
and not enough time to increase savings , not sure if immigration will extend if her income drops 50% but guess still able to compensate with some hundreds.K , so long it tops 800k is it okay ? Does it matter if it didn't get transfered from abroad ?

A lot of questions  , but things are changing quickly and need some answers , anyway her drop will be only for 15months in proabably 6 months from now  , after that her income will switch anyway to social security old age , the Dutch government still doesn't cut on that ...

thanks ,

I think the design is more stylish then how it used to be , think George was looking for something new the old gits  could complain about ...again....change is a good thing , good job George .
