ORIGINAL POSTER

Looking for info on passport and visa expiry dates. My marriage visa (Thai husband) has to be renewed Oct 31st - my US passport expires Dec this year. 

Recently someone warned me that I may not be able to renew my visa until I get a new passport. Is this true?

knows what she's gotta do and we're done

Good luck to her on the passport renewal and the upcoming extension as well (y)

If you act now…right now….to renew your passport via mail to US Embassy, you’ll get your new passport in hand before your current extension expires.

Your new Extension can only be granted until the date your passport expires, not beyond.
