I'll be applying for the DTV extension tomorrow at Phuket. We're a big family, so it's cheaper and more practical for us to do this instead of leaving the country.
Question— I read on the application (which seems to be just a generic tourist visa extension application TM.7) that:
"WHETHER PERMISSION IS GRANTED OR NOT, APPLICATION FEE IS NON REFUNDABLE UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES"
I've only ever applied for a visa exemption extension, which is relatively easy to get, so I've never been denied. Does anyone have experience getting denied the DTV extension and then LOSING their application fee?
If memory serves— the process is always info/document check desk to get a queue number, bring the application to the officer when number is called, pay at the end. I've been in Thailand since 2015, and I just can't see them saying "Sorry, denied. Now pay me" at the extension counter.
Since Bangkok Immigration (Devision 1) has added Required Documents for DTV extension:

Would anyone know if it’s possible to apply for DTV extension at Immigration in Bangkok, but based in Phuket? Meaning proof of Rent Agreement is for Phuket? Greatly appreciate your response without guessing 🙏🏻😉
Went to two different Immigration offices in Phuket this week hoping to get some information about renewing in-country. Neither of them had any idea about cost or requirements 🙃.
Edit: *big apology to the semantic sticklers*
I (obviously) meant "extension" not "renewal." Yes words have meanings. They also get jumbled around in my brain and probably shouldn't make you so frustrated.
