ORIGINAL POSTER

Update on non-O yearly extension at CW (based on support Thai Kid) on 8th Oct. All pretty standard except for 2 things :

- IO Asked for Letter from school certifying that my kid was enrolled in school and a photo of the kid on front of school => never heard of this before and neither did my agent. Got away with not having it but IO said must have next year.

- in case, I did a TM30 for the first time ever on 7th Oct (with my wife account as I live in her place after got username and pw in August), put myself as check-in on 7th Oct (1 day before my visit to CW) and no questions asked, no fine, no comment whatsoever. (I printed a screenshot from the section 38 app in English).

TLDR : Answer Summary

An individual provided an update on their NON-O yearly extension process at the immigration office in Chiang Mai. They reported that the immigration officer requested a letter from their child's school certifying enrollment and a photo of the child in front of the school—requirements they had not encountered before, but noted they would need for next year. Additionally, they mentioned successfully submitting a TM30 for the first time without encountering any fines or issues, indicating a smoother process than expected.

they have had that photo of the child in their school uniform standing in front of the school gate now for a good while (at least a year).
