Dear Hillary,
Does anyone else have the same problem as me? A farang wife, yes I know I brought sand to the beaches, but she has to do a visa run every few months – and she forgets. She is a very independent woman and won’t let me take charge of keeping the visas current. Only problem is I end up having to pay for over-stays and that’s getting expensive these days. What do you recommend I do?

Dear Vic the visa runner,
This is very easy to fix. Give her the independence she want, let her arrange her own visas – and let her pay for her own overstays. If she does it too often she will get deported as well, so you might kill two birds with one stone here.
