Can a United States sex felon get a passport? The quick answer is yes, at least in the United States. There is nothing in U.S. law that prevents most felons from receiving a passport -- unless the terms of parole, probation or sentencing deny the person a right to a passport or international travel. A passport is a document that certifies a person's citizenship. It is not a guarantee of character or anything else; it is basically an identity document. In fact, the passport form doesn't even ask the applicant about criminal history.

I tried learning from a book and cd. Unfortunately, my ear for tones is really bad. On top of that there is not a way for me to practice much when I'm at home in USA. When in Thailand, I get to practice alittle, but can't retain when I return home. Hopefully after my retirement, soon I hope I can spend more time in Thailand and learn and retain the language.

Thank you for the welcome! I think this is going to be a great site. I can't wait for my trip to Thailand in November. Miss my friends and adopted family there.

Hello to all. Good luck to this new site. I am from San Francisco USA and have visited Thailand twice a year, April for Songran and November since 1998. I love Thailand, the culture, and people. I'm 55 and hope to retire next year to Thailand.

This is probably the most informative post I've ever read. Michael, thank you very much. I learned alot.
