Hi. I stupidly let my bank balance fall below 400 000 for a few days within the 2 months before I need to apply for a new marriage extension, due on 5th October. As soon as I realised what I had done, I transferred money to put it over 400 000 but too late now. What are my options. Can I apply for a covid extension or visiting family extension? This is my third marriage extension, Chiang Rai Immigration.

Answer summary

The user is seeking options for maintaining their marriage extension in Thailand after their bank balance fell below the required 400,000 THB. Two main options are suggested in the comments: applying for a 60-day extension due to travel restrictions caused by COVID-19 or applying for a 60-day family visit extension, noting that the latter can only be utilized once per visa.

Your first option is to apply for a 60 day extension of stay based on unable to travel due to COVID-19. Generally this extension of stay starts on the day you receive it, so you should get it as close to September 27 as possible.

Your second option is to get a 60 day extension of stay based on visiting Family. You can only get this extension ONCE per visa, so if you already used t, then you can't get it again.
