My family visit non 0 visa for 90 days is coming to an end now.

I want to extend for another 60 days..

Will I need to take my daughter in person or just her identification and other papers to get extension.

Any good advise.

I have called immigration several times and they just don't understand my question.

Office is a 2 hour drive so would like to complete my 60 day extension in 1 trip with correct paperwork if possible.

Thanks.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking advice on extending their family visit NON-O visa, which is about to expire, for another 60 days. They inquire if they need to bring their daughter in person to the immigration office or if they can manage with her identification and other necessary paperwork. They express frustration with previous unsuccessful attempts to get clear information over the phone due to language barriers, and they wish to complete the extension process in a single trip by having all the correct paperwork ready.

As a rule the "reason" you're getting the extension (which you say is because you have a half thai daughter) needs to be there when you apply.

SO if it's as you say and you wanna pull this off with ONE visit;

I'd take your daughter, her birth certificate with your name on it, her thai house book listing AND if you can take a copy of the thai i/d of the mother with you as well.

@David ******
one thing, seeing as you can only get ONE 60 day visit family extension I'd ask if you can instead apply for the "unable to travel due to covid" (no embassy letter required) extension.. All extensions are the same price and since they came out with this 60 day extension scheme for people "stuck" here you might as well use it rather than the one 60 day visit family extension you're allowed

they ADD the 60 days to the expiration date you have now so you won't lose any time going early. Most offices allow you to apply for an extension when you have 30 days or less left on your current stamp
