TLDR : Answer Summary
To extend your 60-day Tourist Visa for an additional 30 days while in Pai, you will need to bring a passport photo, a copy of your passport, your entry stamp, and 1900 Baht. Additionally, it's mentioned that the 15-day stay post-application is not a requirement for the tourism extension. For more specific guidance, it's suggested to consult the local Thai immigration office since requirements can vary by location.

Try FB groups related to that area as well, especially about the Mae Hong Son rule for a tourism extension application period.

Basically, you are supposed to be able to apply for a tourism extension when you have less than 30 days (or 45 days at some offices).

But there are offices that tell you to apply for a tourism extension within the last week or two.

15 days was never a thing for tourism extension

This is a list of common found requirements for the 30 days extension of stay...ask your Thai immigration office for their requirements.
