@Elías *******
they hold a 6 month METV<-multi-entry tourist visa
Tod *********
There are no successful posts about people with valid MULTI-ENTRY VISAS who applied for a DTV before their previous visa expired

The people who said they applied for a DTV had a single entry tourist visa <- which meant the stamp cancelled when they exited, AND the people who said they got it from an ED visa, really had an "extension of stay" from the immigration office here <- which is not a visa

You cannot hold two valid VISAS in your passport at the same time, you'll get denied

IF you have a 6 month METV you wait for that visa itself to expire before you apply or you'll get your DTV application rejected

You wait it out, THEN apply once that visa is no longer valid for entry to thailand

as I said in the other comment

if you arrived back in the country on the 6th of April your 90 day report would be due July 4th

@Mikael *********
as Jan said you have 3 months from the date they issue the Non-O visa to ENTER thailand and even if you came in on the last day the visa is valid for you'd still get 90 days when you stamped in

Safe travels, best of luck with it

@Ian ***********
they only do that for the very FIRST yearly extension, after that you keep track of it yourself and new yearly extensions don't change the reporting

@Ian ***********
getting a new yearly extension doesn't reset the 90 day reporting at all, it just runs, the only thing that resets it is exiting/coming back into the country

SO

if you arrived back in the country on the 6th of April your 90 day report would be due July 4th

You have to do the first 90 day report when you come back into the country IN PERSON (you can try online but people are getting their reports rejected with this notice in the email
Tod *********
all visa applications are ONLINE, you apply online, submit the document online,

and

if they ask for more documentation you follow the directions in the email that tells you how to add requested documents to the current application
Tod *********
If it was the FIRST yearly extension based on retirement, they usually put a small paper in your passport telling you when your first 90 day report is due

LOOK and see if it's stapled to one of the pages (sometimes under the receipt)

it looks like this
