ORIGINAL POSTER
My friend just had a major surgery and laid down at the hospital.

We came on a TR60 visa and our full 90 day is about to run out.

We need to apply for 60 day covid extension but due to health reasons she can not appear in person at the immigration office.

I have all her information and documents

Can I apply for her when I apply for myself? Is there any additional document required for not appearing in person?

TIA!

TLDR : Answer Summary
The poster needs a COVID visa extension for a friend who cannot attend the immigration office due to health issues. Comments suggest that the hospital might be able to assist, and a special extension due to medical reasons can be obtained. It's advised to act before the current visa expires, possibly requiring a letter from the hospital.

The hospital should be able to help out in this matter…talk to the customer information desk and doctor that is providing care
Michael ********
Do before it expires or could be problem, will need letter from hospital.

No 25

I was hoping we can go the COVID extension. Anyway, our visa is good until 7 Feb, which she will be out before then but not before 25 Jan the current deadline for applying.

I hope they will extend it again.

Your friend (or someone who can communicate for him) needs to contact the hospital and ask for an Extension of Stay Based on Unable to Travel due to Medical Reasons. This is a

/90 day extension of stay, and costs 1,900 THB. The hospital can acquire this extension for your friend.

Hospital probably can handle this. Ask the customer support office.
