you are the cynic.... as discuused above ... a letter from embassy ... with payment of 1900 baht...likely results in stamp saying "under consideartion" come back on date... but the payment covers 30 day extension.... oi they had no intention of extending they would simply send you away... as they have done before.... but NOW ...it has changed... some still get turned away... others get stamp, with verbal assurance of 30 day extension.... they have taken the money... do you really think they will take the money only to return it? only the die hard retirees think they know best...
no you can go now but need letter from landlord, ID of owner of property ( copy), map of residence, proof of residence ( can do at immigration), copy of visa and other pages in passport, photos and of course embassy letter ...
