Has anyone recently tried to extend their DTV visa at the immigration office in Phuket?

I'm assuming the same documents are required as during the initial application.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The post inquires about the process of extending a DTV visa at the immigration office in Phuket. It seems that while this can be accomplished, it is challenging, with only a few reported successes. Respondents confirm that the same documentation as for the initial application is needed, including an updated employment letter. One commenter plans to visit the office soon and promise to provide an update.

It has been done in Phuket. It’s certainly not easy. I know of 7 successful applicants so far. My guess is 100s more just bounce.

Someone posted about doing the extension in Phuket a few weeks ago. It was quite a detailed post. Have a search. Basically yes, all original documentation. Employment letter updated too.
