it's good for the duration of your current stamp so that's why you wait until you get the full extension before you buy it.

Even if you owned a resort outside of Thailand I think they'd worry about you contacting possible Thai clients. Sounds like you gave them way too much info.

hope for the best, you have 2 days. I may be wrong but, if for instance the money is a day late you might be able to pay the overstay fine and complete the extension.

@Tod ********

can you comment on this?

you will buy a reentry permit once your extension is inked in. 1000 baht single 3800 baht multiple

you can apply for an extension right up until the very last day of your current stamp

Did your particular school have a history of successful application approvals and through which Thai Embassy? How long was the course?

Where are you applying from? Are you sure you're on the correct website?

Your 30-day extension of a Visa exempt entry stamp will have Zero effect on your DTV application

180 days is fine, or however long you plan to stay on your first entry.

The money has to season for a full 2 months date to date. On that day you can go to immigration and apply for your one year extension. What date is your current permission to stay stamp? No health insurance or background check requirement, insurance is always a good idea though. You need to make sure that the TM30 has been filed by your landlord, check with your local immigration office to see if they want to see your lease when getting the extension. You'll need the residence certificate from immigration if you want to buy or sell a motorcycle or get a Thai driver's license etc, they're good for 30 days.
