Hi, my visa expires on Monday. Should I go to immigration on Friday or Monday? Do I need to go the immigration in the area where I am staying? Also, do you need to book an appointment for a 4 week visa extension?

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is seeking advice on the best day to go to immigration for a visa extension before it expires, whether they must visit the immigration office in their area, and if an appointment is needed for the extension. Several responses indicate that Friday and Monday are busy days, recommend going earlier in the week, and clarify that they must visit the office corresponding to their registered area. Appointments for a short visa extension are not necessary.

Wow..why did you wait till the last minute, Monday is one of the worst days to visit immigration. You must go to the office where your TM30 has you registered as staying. Good luck🤞

What’s wrong with Thursday? Do it as soon as you can in case you have problems.

What visa have you got?

Fridays and Mondays are the worst days to go to immigration as they are the busiest days. Don't know why you waited until the last minute to do your extension.

You must go to the immigration office that matches the province where you are staying.

No appointment is required and you wouldn't be able to book one this close anyways.
