banks in Thailand have a standard process to issue both a statement from the day of request back (3, 6 or 12 months) plus a letter to the chief immigration officer verifying your a customer and you've maintained the qualifying funds. These are stamped by the bank and are the required documents by immigration to confirm funds held in a Thai bank where this is a prerequisite for an extension of stay. These cost a couple of hundred baht, and must not be more than 7 days old when presenting them at IM. So if you are using Thai funds to support your status rather than foreign funds, then its only to be expected that immigration will require the usual documentation they require for all other extensions.

Thailand only operate e-gates for departures, all arrivals still have to do face 2 face and receive a stamp in the passport.

by law (2021), if returning to an address that you are registered to (via a TM30) before the notified checkout date, you do not have to file a new TM30 regardless of inter-province or out of country travel. However, if dealing with an immigration officer, they may require a new updated TM30 is presented, for them to complete your required transactions.

You missed the communication in Nov last year to all foreign nationals with K bank accounts requesting the filing of several forms (only 1 for non USA nationals) by a mid Dec deadline.

Make sure you checkout the Immigration DTV extension documentation requirements first, they appear to be possibly more demanding than the MFA initial visa requirements.
