Need to apply for a visa extension as am unable to leave and return for my 90 days. I have a letter from my embassy now, do you know what other papers I need to take with me? Are there forms I need to fill in? Thank you so much.

TLDR : Answer Summary
To apply for a visa extension in Thailand, you need a letter from your embassy, which you already have. Additionally, you may need to bring your current visa, passport, and possibly some specific forms to fill out at the immigration office. It's also recommended to inquire about opening hours of the immigration office prior to your visit.

Otherwise get an Embassy letter requesting an extension and take it to your immigration office.

Yes, I have the letter. My question is what other papers are needed. I know others have had to do this and would like to know what they have been asked for.

For the 30-day Emergency Extension you might look at the requirements here (these are the requirements for extending a Tourist Visa, but will probably be similar for extending a Business Visa):
