A point of clarification please - my "valid until date" on my US METV expired today but did a bounce this last weekend and got  60 more days on my visa. That will take me to DEC 25 but want to stay another 30 days after that . So my questions are 

1. Do I fill out the TM7 form "application of extension of temporary stay in the kindom" for this 

2. can i apply any time and does it just tac on and begin  dec 25 until jan 25 or does it have to be done like 3 weeks before my visa expires?  

3. Am i missing any options like just a border bounce for another 30 days ? 

TIA
