I don't think they will be more willing to approve your extension because you have an outbound flight booked a couple of weeks later. If it made a difference, everybody would book cheap and/or refundable flights to show when applying for an extension.

I know it may sound weird, but try FB messenger.

I don't see a reason why it shouldn't qualify as remote work.

You most probably have an extension of stay, not a visa.

You wrote "they said to apply for her after mine has been approved"...

Every embassy/consulate has an e-mail address. Some do not reply to e-mails. Every embassy/consulate has a phone number. Some do not answer the phone. In this case, look for other channels like FB messenger, Line App, etc.

Hi Simon,

What are you talking about exactly? You wrote visa, but do you mean visa-exempt entry stamp by any chance? In this case, you will get 60 days if you come from one of the 93 countries in this list: If not, please specify which visa, obtained from a Thai embassy/consulate abroad, you hold.

There's no connection between you having been in Thailand for 2 weeks on a visa-exempt entry stamp and your DTV application. Just make sure that you don't overstay before leaving Thailand and applying for the DTV.

Intended arrival date has either passed or is imminent: I would contact them, politely asking if there is a problem or if they need anything, mentioning your travel plans. There's no way to know how they work, so it could mean anything that they're late, from having concerns and checking carefully the application to the application having gone down the drain, and everything in between.

What did you mention as her intended date of arrival? Do they mention an average processing time on their website?

You can try to contact them, since it's been a month already, as long as you've been waiting longer than their processing time. Depending on the embassy/consulate: by e-mail, phone, messenger, line...
