Is the Affidavit of Freedom to Marry required for a marriage-based extension of stay in Thailand?
Anyone gotten an extension of stay based on marriage (At Chaengwattana) without having the affidavit of freedom to marry form? I got the form before getting married, but never figured I would need that form again. Now seeing it as a requirement on a list of docs needed for the extension. Maybe not necessary? Seems quite redundant seeing as I am clearly married to a Thai already.
Summary so far
A user is inquiring about the necessity of the Affidavit of Freedom to Marry for extending their stay in Thailand based on marriage. They express confusion over the requirement since they are already married to a Thai national and question the validity of the documentation list indicating that this affidavit is necessary. Other comments suggest confusion and possible mix-ups with different forms required.

Copy of Kor Ror 2 (marriage registration or long tabian) from amphur office. Depending on Immigration office how updated this copy must be, some say 6 months some say 1 week.

Do you have a copy of this list?

OPIt was listed next to that among some other things. I'm leaning towards that it was probably incorrect, and that is why I'm asking for other peoples' experiences.

Could it be a mix up with the Kor Ror 2 form. This paper you get from local Amphur and is proof that your marriage is still registered.

OPlist someone showed me. May not be reliable, which is why I was curious.
