Their first suggestion was that, as I was on a marriage visa, I should go for a marriage extension which involves even more hoops. They then said that I could sign (?) to say I wanted to change to a retirement extension.

Just popped into Korat Immigration to get list of requirements for a Retirement extension. I can prove 12 months of 65k plus coming into Thailand, but because I am currently on a Marriage visa from Laos they are wanting to see the source of my income in my home country (England). They asked for the Embassy letter and took some convincing that the UK no longer did those. I am now trying to chase down my pension tax forms from the UK.

Perhaps this may help?

I believe that the amnesty was also intended to cover those unable to do the 90 day border bounce. If the Amnesty legislation did not specifically state 'tourists' or the intention to give them time to leave then it is a cover-all and those remaining under its umbrella should not experience any difficulties on July 31st provided they then do as the Thai government requires.

I fell under the amnesty 2 weeks ago. I could extend using the married man option but the hoops you have to jump through are too excessive. I am hoping to go for a retirement extension next month when I can meet the requirements. Under another post above, one commentator is saying that those on overstay have lost their visas and have to start again. I do not believe that that is true. I hope it is not.

They have to meet the conditions to extend.
