Dec 7th is NOT an immigration holiday. :/ It is a substitution day for rama 9's b/d from the 5th.. Immigrations is open that day

they are closed on the 10th and 11th though..

You can go next business day after holiday.

And I would say more: you can go any day before Jan 30th to get the second stamp but I would not risk just in case if police stop you somewhere.

@Vio***
you have a piss poor understanding of how the process works :/

The O/P has an under consideration stamp (meaning they applied for the 60 day extension and they were given a stamp that tells them to show up in 14 days) they can't go any day before Jan 30th, they show up ON THAT DAY and they will get the rest of their 60 day extension put in their passport.
