Next week I will apply for a one-year extension of stay for non O visa (age over 50) AND the multiple re-entry permit.

My understanding is that I can get the one-year extension of stay on one day, but have to return the next day to get the multiple re-entry permit.

1. Is that correct? (Re: going back on another day for re-entry permit)

2. Will I have to leave my passport with immigration overnight when applying for either the one-year extension or the multiple re-entry permit? (I vaguely recall that might be the case).

Thank you. I am trying to figure out how many trips to immigration I must make.
Answer summary
The user plans to apply for a one-year extension of stay for a NON-O visa (for those over 50) and a multiple re-entry permit at the Phuket immigration office. They seek clarification on whether these applications can be processed on the same day and whether they will need to leave their passport with immigration overnight. Comments indicate that at the Phuket office, it is possible to apply for both the extension and the re-entry permit on the same day, with the passport typically retained for less than an hour.

You can get extension and re-entry permit in same day. Extension first, reentry second.

They will keep your passport for less than 1 hour usually.

And the answer is: At immigration office 1 yes, at immigration office 2 no and so we can go on to mention all of the over 75 offices nationwide.
