ORIGINAL POSTER

Went to Immigration 1 to extend my 60 day visa (Canada) While they were processing it they realized I had been stamped in for 61 days at airport(I did not calculate it either)  but they made the correction there and did give the extension without having to go back to airport.  Whole process from arrival to departure actually only took 45 min and  included filling out the forms, photocopies and photos downstairs. I was quite surprised. Maybe I was lucky this time? Officer was very friendly, understanding and helpful as I had made a couple errors on the form.

Glad it went smoothly for you.

Yes, I think you were lucky. You couldn't complain if they sent you to the IT Square Laksi Plaza office (which covers arrival stamp correction) or the entry airport to correct your stamp.

Thank you for your report.
