ORIGINAL POSTER

UPDATE: everything went fine, in and out no questions asked, stamped until March 20, 2022. Next step is to switch back from Covid extension to yearly extension. I will post about that afterwards in March.

I did a covid extension on 18 January. It is under consideration. I go back on February 2 for the additional 45 days of the extension. I want to make sure there will not be a "surprise" 7-day leave the country stamp when I go on February 2. Since I have the under consideration, am I good? Any reports of people getting under consideration, then not getting the additional 45 days? #covidextensions

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user successfully obtained a Covid extension stamp valid until March 20, 2022, after visiting the Thai immigration office. They are concerned about the follow-up process for extending the Covid extension. A commenter reassured them that there are no reported cases of denials for those who received an 'under consideration' stamp, suggesting the user return to the same immigration office with their necessary documents.

Of the many many thousands of people here who have gotten many many many 60 day covid extensions there is not one single verifiable post or report of someone who got an under consideration stamp and was denied when they went back to "close the loop".

Now with that being said you have to go back to the immigration office that issued that under consideration stamp to get the 'loop closed'

That means in your case you go back to the Phetchaburi Immigration office where you got that stamp on Jan 18th.

BUT

You will have no issues at all, take your passport and that blue green receipt that shows you paid 1900baht with you and that's all you need.

thank you. there are so many posts here, it is good to get confirmation on this. Last thing I want is that 7-day stamp. I will close comments, and hopefully this helps anybody else with a similar question.
