Question about 1 year multi entry non-o visa.

Can I get 60 days visit family extension on any entry or only once on the visa validity period? Can I ask 30 days tourism extension top of that?

TLDR : Answer Summary
For a 1-year multi-entry Non-O visa, you can only obtain a 60-day family visit extension once during the visa's validity period. A tourist extension cannot be applied alongside the Non-O visa since it is not a tourist visa. It is also advised that to maximize your stay, you might consider re-entering Thailand just before the visa expires to extend your stay further.

Re enter just before the visa ends get your 15 months. Then apply 60 days extention. Gives you a year and five months. Got to do a border bounce 4 times

You can only get a 60 day visit family extension on the back of a non o visa once per visa. I know this because I've actually done it.

You can't get a tourist extension on a non o visa because it's not a tourist visa..

well, if it's only one I'd keep it for the end of the visa, if it's more I can use it before

. Then why don't you state the office you are going to use? You have to use the office you live near. You can't pick which one..

. There are 90+ offices..

A multi entry non o let's you stay for at least a year anyway. Maybe ask the question in a years time when you know where you are living. Way too early to be thinking about short extensions when you can get a yearly extension on your non o anyway.
