Has my 60-day Covid extension in Thailand been approved if I was told to collect my documents on Monday?

Covod extension - Silly question (sorry my bf is fretting) If immigration has taken our forms, passport and 1900 bhat and said "Collect on Monday" does that mean our 60 day Covid extension has been approved? I assume yes and the paperwork is just being processed.

TLDR : Answer Summary
If immigration has taken your forms, passport, and the fee and told you to collect your documents on Monday, it's a positive sign that your 60-day Covid extension is likely approved. This indicates that the paperwork is in process, although final confirmation would depend on the immigration officer's discretion.

Since IOs been overwhelmed it seems they process after hours/overnight and let people return next day office is open If you got s token to collect and paid and paper approved and not had a Non Immigrant visa before C extension you most likely fine. But still up to the IO ✨

What's normal is they will put an under consideration stamp with a date to return to get the full extension inked in your passport and hand it back to you .
