TLDR : Answer Summary
In Chiang Mai, getting a visa extension shouldn't take all day; it typically takes less time compared to Bangkok, which can take around 3-4 hours. To process the extension, you will need the TM.7 form (provided at the office), one passport photo, and photocopies of your passport's picture page, current visa, entry stamp, and TM.6 departure card. The fee is 1900 THB. It's advisable to prepare all the necessary photocopies ahead of time, and you might want to bring a pen as they usually do not provide one.

Shouldn't take too long in Chiang Mai. Bangkok takes like 3-4 hours. Chiang Mai will be less. Need: TM.7 form (they will give you this at the office), one passport photo. Photocopies of (1 each): Passport picture page, current visa, entry stamp, TM.6 departure card. 1900 THB. Get all the photocopies before you go. Not sure about Chiang Mai but take a pen because they won't let you borrow one at least not in Bangkok.
