TLDR : Answer Summary
You can apply for a NON-O visa extension up to 45 days before it expires without losing any days. Early applications are commonly accepted at various immigration offices, and the extension adds to your current expiration date, meaning the days won't be deducted from your visa duration.

Go to the Retirement Visa Section for information on requirements, including age restrictions, financial requirements, and necessary documentation.

At most offices you can apply for an extension when you have 30 days or less left on your current stamp, SOME offices like Bangkok, Samut Prakan, Chiang Mai, Phuket etc allow you to apply when you have 45 days or less left on your stamp.
Unless you're changing the reason for your extension (like marriage to retirement or retirement to marriage) all extensions are added to the expiration date you have now. <-Meaning you don't lose any time applying early.
