ORIGINAL POSTER

Apologies if the question has been answered and I have missed it.  I have a Suvannakhet non O based on marriage valid until Feb 2021, before the 26th September I got a 60 day extension based on visiting family that expires on 26th November.  Due to the latest amnesty extension does my 60 days start after 30th November? Or is there something I need to do?

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user inquired whether their 60-day extension, expiring on November 26, is affected by the recent amnesty extending until November 30. The response clarifies that the user's situation is different; the amnesty applies only to specific circumstances and does not alter their 60-day extension expiration.

so just a reminder, after November 26th you won't receive another 60-days family visit extension, if this is what you are planning . . you can MAYBE get another 30-days amnesty extension. Maybe!

and you can only get one 60-day family visit extension per Entry/per visa/per year . . after the 26 th of November nobody knows if you will be able to go on amnesty until November 30, winning you just 4 more days, or not . . . .

no one knows how the extensions of stay applications will work after this current amnesty runs out. They did announce in the press conference that going forward extensions would be sold in 60 day increments and sold without needing the embassy letter, BUT at this time no one has applied for one so we don't know how it really will be handled

You're NOT on amnesty, you're on a 60 day visit thai family extension so it expires on Nov 26th

Just so you know, this current amnesty only runs until Oct 31st, that until nov 30 was for people who got the 30 day embassy request extension that was good until Oct 26.. They get the Nov 30 stamp. Not anyone else.
