Will My Non-Immigrant O Visa Be Affected If My Passport Expires Soon?

So far in all this covid stuff I have been lucky with visa requirements. I am on a non imm O extension, based on retirement, expiry 28/11/20. However I had a trip home to the UK cancelled for May, one reason was to renew my UK passport which is running out of pages. It expires 8/21.

I just realised that if I dont renew my passport (probably in VFS Bangkok) I may not get a full year. Will I get a new expiry to match the passport expiry, or will I get refused?

Looks like I need a new passport before I go to submit my application in Oct/Nov this year. Is this correct?

Thanks

They are inquiring whether they need to renew their passport before applying for the visa extension to avoid issues with the expiry date.

if you apply for a 1 year Extension of Stay, you get 1 year extra or until the valid until date of your passport, what ever comes first
