A friend of mine tried to do his TM30 via the mobile app. He has been waiting 2 weeks for the clearance. He needs to re new his work permit next week so will immigration accept a screen shot from his phone that reads Check Status, or not? Thank you.

TLDR : Answer Summary
A question was raised about whether immigration would accept a screenshot showing the status of a TM30 application via the mobile app for a work permit renewal. Various comments clarified that the TM30 is necessary for the renewal process and emphasized the distinction between the requirements of the Ministry of Labor and the immigration office.

They are not waiting for clearance, they are waiting to get approval to USE the online system. have them go in to the online we-based portal and check the status of their application;

AND remember, just registering to USE the online system does NOT file a TM30.. They will need to file a TM30 on their own BEFORE they can get their extension.

It was a requirement.

you didn't show your TM30 to renew your work permit at the Ministry of Labour. You showed it to get an extension at the immigration office ;)

Well I recently re newed my work permit and extended my visa at Cheangwattana. I had to show my TM30.

To apply for an extension of the work permit from the ministry of labor has nothing to do with the Extension of Stay or the address registration needed at the Royal Thai Police Immigration Bureau. You mix up requirements from two total different Government agencies.

This will be the first time to re new his work permit with the TM30. He is wondering if it will be accepted or not.

Our school does our work permit for us and we get a visa at the same time.

Why would he go to Immigration? If he want to extend his Work Permit he better visit the Ministry of Labor, who are responsible for work permits.
