As we can not tell the future, we can not guess when there are small lines or long lines when you want to visit. Best is to contact Immigration yourself and ask how busy it is. Their phone number is: 053 142 787

I went last tuesday and it was seriously crowded. Had to wait 4 hours total for my visa exempt entry extension. Met another guy who’s been waiting since 2AM to extend his education visa and he finished half an hour after me.

Anyway, past monday was a special day on which the offices were closed so maybe that had to do with the extra crowd
