Do I need to file a 90-day report after reentering Thailand on a NON-O visa?

Hello, a couple questions about the 90 day report:

I'm on non-o visa since mid February, extended to 1 year in mid May (spouse of Thai citizen), and now believe I am due to notify the kingdom this weekend (first report). However, I recently traveled internationally and reentered on August 3rd.

On the immigration site's 90 day report form, at the bottom is an important note that reads, "If a foreigner leaves the country and reenters, the day count starts at 1 in every case". That means I don't have to bother with doing the report, right?

Second question: if I leave for more than 90 days and come back just before the visa expires, do I still need to do the report, or would I lose the visa, or what happens?

TLDR : Answer Summary
A 90-day report is required if you stay in Thailand for 90 continuous days on your visa. If you travel outside Thailand and re-enter, your countdown resets, meaning you won't need to report until you've been back for 90 days. If you leave Thailand for over 90 days and return before your visa expires, the reporting requirement remains unaffected as long as you are back in the country before your current visa extension ends.

You've got some of it correct

You do a 90 day report once you've been IN the country 90 continuous days on a visa/extension.

Your initial 90 day report would have been due 89 days from the date you applied for the year extension so mid August sometime (they usually put a small paper IN your passport telling you when the first report is due)

However you said you traveled before that and returned on Aug 3 <- meaning if you don't leave the country your NEXT 90 day report would be due Oct 31st

You can leave the country for as long as you want to as long as you're back before the current extension expires so you can apply for another one..

90 day reporting has nothing to do with your extension, it's just something you have to do if you're in country 90 days at one time.
