NO, you forget the first step to convert your stay into a Non Immigrant O visa based on being married with a Thai National and this conversion will give you a 90 days stay.

The conversion does not need seasoned money in the bank, the application for the Extension of Stay after 60 days of getting this visa needs minimum 2 months.

Can I get a second extension on my tourist visa in Thailand or do I need to do a visa run?

Robert *******

You can only get 1 Extension of Stay based on tourism, but you still can apply for an Extension of Stay based on visiting family if you have Thai family, or based on unable to travel due to Covid.

Will extending my 30-day visa exempt at IT Plaza impact my Non-O visa application later at Chaengwattana?

Robert *******

Not sure what kind of effect you think of, but it is a normal procedure to apply for the 30 day Extension of Stay based on tourism or even the 60 day Extension of Stay based on visiting family to get time enough for the 2 months seasoning of the banked money.

Go abroad and come back and use the 30 day Visa Exempt Entry and try again for a 30 day Extension of Stay, OR

visit a Thai Embassy and apply for the Single Entry Tourist Visa, get 60 days on entry apply for a 30 day Extension of Stay.

Not sure what you try to tell me, but financial problems of a foreigner does not give the person special privileges to stay in the Kingdom.

She works illegal, so keep it quit and leave the country to come back with the correct visa.

Talk to her employer and get the documents to apply abroad for the Non Immigrant B visa, return with that visa into Thailand, get the work permit and after all this is done start working again.

It is not allowed to work with a 30 day Visa Exempt Scheme inside Thailand.
