Can I Get Another 60-Day Stamp With an Existing Visa While Waiting for Immigration Extension in Thailand?

Hi, I am hoping for some clarity here.

We are on Koh Tao and luckily immigration is coming to us on the 7th. We have all our required documents for the emergency extension.

Here is my question. My wife and I have a 6 Month Multiple Entry Visa that expires on June 22. Our initial stamp expired on March 14, and we received a normal 30 day extension on the stamp for April 14. While we have all the documents we need for an emergency extension stamp, I am wondering if there is something else I should be submitting to possibly get another regular 60 day stamp. We have a valid visa, all we are missing is the quick border bounce, which is not possible. In my mind it would make sense to do another 60 day stamp since it is within our visa. However what I believe makes sense and reality sometimes do not collide. So given our current visa, is there something else I should prepare for, or is the emergency 30 day extension my only option short of leaving the country?

Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is inquiring about the possibility of obtaining another 60-day stamp on their existing 6-month Multiple Entry Visa while facing expiration issues compounded by current travel restrictions. The majority of the community responses indicate that the emergency 30-day extension is the only option available due to changes in visa rules stemming from the COVID-19 situation, and that pursuing a 60-day stamp is not feasible.

There is no way you get 60 day stamps.

Be happy that the Thai Immigration and your Embassy working together so you can stay legal until you find a flight back home country.

The 30 days emergency extension is all what you can request. I understand the COVID-19 extension will make the other extension invalid. Make plans to leave Thailand
