I will get my non o visa stamp early July, which will be valid for 90 days. I understand that I can then apply for the 12 month extension based on retirement 30 days before the non o visa expires. Do you get the extension stamp put in your passport the same day you put the TM7 application form and docs in (as with just a 30 day extension) or do you have to go back to immigration again a few days before the non o visa expires to get the stamp? Thanks very much

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user plans to apply for a 12-month extension for their Non-O visa based on retirement, starting 30 days before the visa expires. Comments clarify that the extension is often issued on the spot for a fee, but some immigration offices may hold the passport and require a return visit to collect it.

when you apply for the yearly extension based on retirement for 1900baht it is issued on the spot

There are some offices that hold your passport and make you come back to pick it back up wiht the extension inked in

CHECK WITH YOUR OFFICE BEFORE YOU APPLY to see if you use one of them ๐Ÿ™‚
