ORIGINAL POSTER
On a Non-B multi and now on amnesty as last stamp expired last week.

If the amnesty ends and is not extended, can I extend my stay somehow? I normally bounce out every few weeks, but I can’t do that now.

Can’t go back to the UK with the mess they have made of COVID19

TLDR : Answer Summary
The asker is currently on amnesty due to an expired Non-B visa and is inquiring about the options available to extend their stay once the amnesty period ends. A commenter explains that if the individual has a Non-B visa based on employment, they may obtain documents from their employer to apply for a yearly extension at the immigration office. However, if they do not have that option, they will need to get a new visa elsewhere to avoid overstaying.

go on the amnesty which is until the 31st of July <- that's almost TWO months from now, and you have no idea what will happen between now and then border wise. Let's not start asking questions no one can answer. You qualify for the amnesty here and stay until July 31st, take it and see what happens

you're on amnesty until no later than the 31st of July.

As far as extending your stay after that, IF you have a Non-B based on employment you can get documents from your employer and go apply for a yearly extension at the immigration office. Other than that you've got no way to extend your stay and you'd have to go get a new visa somewhere..

Still you're good for almost 2 months more so watch the news for the borders and consulates opening and see what you can do when it gets closer to the amnesty running out
