Im thinking about going to Vientiane soon and apply for a tourist visa there, what do i need to know, and how long would it take?

If you are on an extension of stay then that extension finished with your contract, you should have cancelled both your work permit and the extension on your last day of work and left the country.

If you are on an actual visa (check your passport) you can stay until the visa expires
