You may get lucky and get both ๐

You asked...
"Hi guys. My 60 day visa runs out on December 4. Assuming immigration doesn't issue a covid-extension before November 26 (I have not done the 30 day extension yet). Once I get it that means I can stay until around January 4. From there what is the best way to restart the clock?
I really don't want to shell out $18k for an elite but... if the hassle is to great this might be my last resort. What is the most viable way to get more time without having to go all the way back to the US to restart the clock? Usually I just hop on a plane and spend a couple months in PI, Vietnam or Japan but since they are closed, this plan is a bit far fetched. Would Singapore be a good option? Any advice?"
