Hi I heard that the Government has Suspended Covid Visa from March. Is it true?

Can you please let me know if you can do Covid Visa Extension.

Thank You
Answer summary
The Covid Visa is not suspended from March; however, its application has been extended until the end of March. Currently, only those on visa-exempt and tourist visas can obtain Covid extensions. Non-O visa holders must either renew their visa or leave Thailand after a short grace period.

They're not suspended from March as such - the ability to apply for has been extended until March. Whether they offer it past March is a guess.

Only those on visa exempt and tourist visa can get Covid extensions now. All those on Non o visas which are expiring either renew their visa or get a 7 day get out of Thailand stamp. Not expecting any more extensions after end of March.
