ORIGINAL POSTER
I'm considering applying for my non b extension under my own work permit myself.

I was given a list of documents by the immigration official.

What are the chances that even after bringing all documents, they will make up an additional requirement not on the list? Has this happened to anyone.

On the flip side, has anyone experienced any flexibility on the documents required.

For my situation, i have everything, except 3 months of VAT. I have registered my VAT and have made 1 filing, But honestly, I don't even need to pay VAT yet as it's a new business and has not crossed the income threshold.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The poster is seeking advice on the likelihood of facing additional document requirements when applying for a non-B visa extension under their own work permit. They have the necessary documentation but lack 3 months of VAT filings due to their new business status. Comments suggest that in Bangkok, the visa extension may be difficult to obtain without the VAT filings, while others propose possible solutions like applying for a VAT refund.

Maybe it's a case of paying VAT, then apply for a VAT refund if you have over paid after the VAT financial year period.

If its in Bangkok you won't get the extension without the vat 3 month vat filings unless you use agent I guess?
