Finding work after DTV

Hi everyone, I am currently on DTV working online but I am not sure how much longer my job will last, I would just like to know how possible it would be to get some kind of work in Thailand, I do plan on marrying my girlfriend in the future which could lead to getting PR but I am still unsure on what kind of work I could get here. I dont have a degree if that helps when answering. Just looking for any advice, thanks guys.

Living on the Outskirts of BKK

If anyone could help give some words advice here that would be much appreciated. I am US resident who’s attempting to move to Thailand long term . I have a girlfriend here who’s born and raised Thai (living in central BKK) , and have visited many times beforehand. I’ve been offered an interview for the year contract at said school (won’t mention for privacy purposes).

However I am having some real doubts about the lifestyle and how hard it might be for me to adjust. Not that I go out often, or care to be around other westerners😂 however I feel as though I am completely removing myself from the city feel / would be moving quite far from where my partner is. Also I am 192 Cm tall and stand out as a white guy lol.

Additionally I have heard horror stories of the flooding in the area being so bad that people are forced out of their homes etc. Money wise I’m more than fine and I have no problem “not getting paid” should class be canceled. Can someone tell me if I’m overthinking this or do I just man up and get a 35 min grab each morning and afternoon?

EDIT **** : The reason Im posting this in the first place is I only have 30 days left as I just extended my VISA. I applied to so many different posistion in thailand and this is one of the ones im actually hearing back from

How to go about taxes when freelancing from Thailand on a Non-Immigrant O

I am a foreign national on a Non-Immigrant O dependent visa. I live in Thailand for more than 180 days, but my freelance clients are all outside Thailand.

All my payments go to my Indian bank account, and I don’t remit those earnings to Thailand.

How will this income be classified for Thai tax purposes, and am I required to file?
