Two things. First I got extended but only until October 12th. Is that normal?

Second, how do I change provinces?

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is inquiring whether having a visa extension only until October 12th is typical and is also looking for guidance on how to change provinces in Thailand. From the comments, it is noted that one must return to complete the immigration process and cannot apply to different immigration offices, but rather must use the one related to their current registration.

You go back on the date instructed by ThaI Immigration. Get the UNDER CONSIDERATION stamp closed out.

As for moving...you can. But you cannot shop around for immigration offices. You use the one where you are registered.
