Applied for the covid extension at CW and got the usual 30 days under consideration stamp. Now my question: is is possible to change in 30 days directly to the 60 days extension based on marriage or do I first have to get the 2nd 30 days stamp for the covid extension?

Option 1 would save me one trip to CW and as I will fly to my home country in 87 days, the 30 +60 days based on marriage would be ok for me.

Thanks
Answer summary
A user asked about the possibility of switching from a 30-day COVID extension to a 60-day extension based on marriage within the 30-day period. A commenter clarified that it is not possible to change the extension type until the current COVID extension is finalized, meaning the user must first obtain the extension from the current status before pursuing a new extension.

nope you cannot. You have an "under consideration" stamp right now and until you "close the loop" <- get the extension of stay stamp FROM that under consideration stamp you can't do anything else stamp/extension wise

SO that's not an option you can choose to do.
