Thank you for your support to this project! We are currently working on 22 citizenship cases in 5 areas of Northern Thailand. We do about one trip a week to work on at least one case.
Updates: Faa's case in Fang is nearly complete! We have completed interviews in Chiang Mai and will submit her paperwork in Fang for her official birth certificate. Then the Fang office will send all the paperwork to Bangkok and wait for her social security number to come back, which takes about a year.
Ying: She got her official birth certificate and has met with the new officer in charge of citizenship in Chiang Dao. He will complete one last paper for her to sign and then her paperwork will be submitted for her social security card.
Nada's family: The paperwork was submitted, but it was returned with some additional questions to be answered. We hope to get this resolved and resubmitted in the next month.
We hope this gives you an idea of some of the cases nearing completion. We are so grateful to have the support to keep helping people in Thailand get their rights as full citizens of their birth country!
