TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, if you plan to extend your stay in Thailand on a Visa exemption, your landlord or property owner is required to report your presence to immigration using a TM-30 form within 24 hours of your arrival at that property. However, when extending your visa, it's sufficient to present the TM-30 form at the time of your extension application, regardless of when it was actually submitted.

In most Immigration offices you do need a TM.30 for extending, yes. And yes your accommodation has to file those within 24 hours. BUT: For you effectively it makes no difference when the TM.30 was actually filed. It is sufficient to just present one at the time of extension (no matter if it was filed within 24 hours or an hour before you show up for your extension).

I’ve extended twice this year and never needed to bring a form. I show up at immigration with my passport and money. They give me a form and a worker helps me fill it out (mostly the address section), and then they sit me with an officer who takes my photo digitally, asks me if I like Thailand, stamps the passport and I’m out the door. Super easy!!
7 years ago I entered Thailand visa on arrival/ Visa exemption and when I showed up to extend my stay they find me either 1,000 or 1900 THB I've had a bad taste of that in my mouth for a long time :-) I stayed in several hotels, but when I showed up to extend my stay. They said that I had never TM 30
