What should I do regarding my DTV visa extension and 90 day report in Thailand?

I have a question about the extension of my DTV visa.

In my passport I have my visa stamped until April 1, the 90 days report says it expires on March 26 and I am moving on March 21 into my new apartment that I have rented.

I have asked the landlord about the TM30 and it may take 1 week after I signed the contract on March 20.

So I will most likely have it before the 26th. I also know that I have up to 7 days from the 26th for the 90 day report.

My questions are:

1. Should I wait until I have all the paperwork (contract and tm30 of the apartment) and do the DTV extension before April 1?

2. Or do I report the 90 days previously with the current hotel tm30 and then do the extension? (I asked this because I know I can do it 15 days prior).

3. And if I just do the extension, the 90 days report would not be necessary, right?

Thanks for any advice what best to do 😊
Answer summary
The user is seeking advice on extending their DTV visa, while navigating their 90-day report and the TM30 requirement after moving to a new apartment. They are unsure whether to wait until they have all necessary paperwork for the extension or file the 90-day report using their current TM30. Comments suggest filing the 90-day report can be done with the current TM30 and that extending the visa likely requires this report. An alternative is also mentioned—exiting the country to obtain a new entry stamp.

Just bounce now no 90 day due and a new 180 day stamp I’m hearing it’s really tough to extend in country

Chances are you aren't going to get an extension without filing another 90 day report if it's due right around expiration date of your current stamp

You can do it from 2 weeks before to 1 week after in person, so with one due March 26th you could have filed a 90 day report since Wednesday the 12th 🙂 )

You can do the 90 day report with the current hotel TM30 you have now, no issue at all, THEN when you go for the extension you'll have the new TM30 from the new place along with the required documentation

The only reason you wouldn't have to do a 90 day report is because you bounced out / back to get a new 180 day entry stamp rather than get the extension. You go for the extension you will need a 90 day report receipt
