My wife and I have a ED visa and dis our last border run on February 4th. Up until now we've been able to extend our ED visa in country and have been given until February 3rd. We'd like to stay until March 1st ish before visiting home and resetting our visas. Can someone help explain the 60 day covid extension? What's required, when to apply etc. Thanks in advance!

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user has an ED visa and wishes to understand the process for applying for a 60-day COVID extension to stay in Thailand until March 1st, after their last border run on February 4th. They have been informed that they need documentation from their school confirming they stopped studying, and that they should go to the immigration office to cancel their ED extensions before applying for the COVID extension.

you would need to get documentation from your school stating you stopped studying (before Jan 29th) and then go to the immigration office, cancel your ED extensions (you can go a week before the date on the paper), and immediately apply for an unable to travel due to covid 60 day extension.

That helps, thank you!

The reason I said that the paperwork has to be dated and your visit to immigrations has to be BEFORE the 29th of Jan is that's the last day they offer the 60 day covid extension.
