Counter J (Extension of TR-60) Immigration staff were professional and very friendly today.

It is located on 3rd Floor in the Impact temporary area. Taxis are readily available outside for your return.

They have copies of all necessary Immigration forms as well as pens, glue and hand sanitizers for use.

They check all your documents and bring you into another room where chairs are spaced about 2m apart. You get a laminated number card that they call in sequence.

Staff then review your documents, ask you to remove your mask so they can take your photo, then ask for payment.

You then take a seat again and wait for your number to be called and they return your passport with a payment receipt.

Got a stamp saying 'under consideration' and I need to come back on 29 September.

Documents Requested:

- Confirmation of online appointment

- Passport

- Copy of Passport, current visa and arrival card (Note: they put a blue stamp on your passport and visa copy that you sign on)

- Application for extension

- Application of acknowledgement of overstay

- Embassy Letter

- 4cm x 6cm photo (only 1)

- 1,900 THB

FYI, there is a little kiosk on 1st floor asking 2 THB/photocopy and 100THB for photos. It also has cup noodles and drinks available.

Good luck everyone!
