ORIGINAL POSTER
Update to our Chiang Mai 60 day tourist visa extension experience. Wife and I arrived in BKK on Dec. 18th. stamped in until Feb. 15th. Went to CM IO on Jan. 26th and applied for Covid extension, bypassing the normal 30 day tourist extension for the same 1900THB. Received an under consideration stamp for Feb. 10th. Went back this morning and in 15 minutes we left with a 60 day extension taking us to April 16th. This was awesome as they gave us 60 days from the end of our initial Feb. 15th TR visa expiration vs. from when we applied. We'll go back end of March to get another 60 day Covid extension.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user describes their experience extending a 60-day tourist visa in Chiang Mai. They entered Thailand on December 18th and initially had a visa until February 15th. On January 26th, they applied for a Covid extension at the Chiang Mai immigration office, resulting in a 60-day extension granted on February 10th, which they received with the extension validity starting from the original expiration date.
