ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The TM30 form is indeed necessary for obtaining a 12-month extension on a non-O retirement visa. It serves as the registration of your current residence, and without it, you may face difficulties in applying for the extension. In contrast, the TM47 is a 90-day report and is not directly related to the extension requirement, although it is important to submit it to avoid fines. It's recommended to update your TM30 with immigration before applying for the visa extension.
