TLDR : Answer Summary
The online extension of stay system for NON-O visas in Chiang Mai appears to be problematic. Users have reported that the only option available for online extensions is "retirement," while other categories like marriage or raising Thai children are not accessible. Furthermore, some users noted the absence of available bookings for both July and August, suggesting that the system may not be functioning properly. It was also mentioned that the Chiang Mai immigration office had ceased taking online bookings for Family Purpose extensions earlier in the year due to staff reallocations and increased office traffic.

CM IO stopped taking on- line bookings for Family Purpose extensions in January/ February and now it seems others are no longer being served for on- line appointments. In May when I went you to the office by the airport I asked why and I was informed that some staff had to be moved to Central Festival as this office was now very busy .

it works but for some reason (which I cannot fathom) it ONLY has "retirement" as the choice you can pick, not marriage, not raising thai children, etc ๐Ÿ˜•

Whoops, hold that thought ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

I just went on there and there are NO bookings available, no matter what choice you choose for an extension, not for july or august, <- that leads me to believe perhaps it isn't working ๐Ÿ˜•
