Are you currently in Thailand?

What crowds are you talking about? Was in Phuket imm 2 weeks ago and it was tumbleweeds.

Go for the Covid extension (60 days) then go for 60 day visit Thai family. Takes you to mid Feb 1900 each extension.

@Mark **********

how am I supposed to know you've been through this many times? Just trying to get a bit more info to help someone out.

So, if you were applying for your first covid extension, and you had 6 weeks left on your current visa, it sounds to me like you haven't even applied for your first 30 day extension of your tourist visa yet.

What date did you enter Thailand? What visa did you have or did you enter visa exempt?

@Tod ********

same thing happened to me last year in koh tao. Landlord didn't save the tm30 but gave me the screen shot.

When you write down your phone number entering all these shops and malls..... They get sold.

Tis link is a GUIDE only... mentions father not mother. Mentions money in bank 7 days.

Phuket Immigration is dead quiet at the moment so follow Tods advice and go speak to them. They close for lunch 1200 to 1300 (or maybe 1300 to 1400 cant remember)

Go for the 90 day non o (marriage) visa. Once in Thailand you can visit immigration and get the 60 day visit family extension. That gets you 5 months.

There's an immigration office on Koh Tao and they aren't that busy. Go see them and see if you can do it there. Worst that can happen is they say is no and you've wasted a full 15 minutes of your day. If you have the patience, technical know how and an android phone, you could try doing it on line.
