thank you. They are seemingly on a skeleton crew there atm due to COVID-19. It's a very small office. Only him and 3-4 student helpers. I am pretty sure he is the boss there. At least my wife told me so. I guess I will just make it work somehow. Will ask again when I go for the actual extension. Maybe he will be in a better mood by then 😂

Many smaller immigration offices don't actually process the marriage extension by themselves, but have to send it to a ditrict office. The date they put in your passport is the date you come back and get the remaining 11 months stamped in. Not before, not after.

@Ellie ******

why are you saying he cant stay past 22 january 2022? If he entered 4th April 2021, he should be stamped in until 3rd April 2022..

@Chelsea *******

there are no "in between" visas. Sure if your new school can provide paperwork that they have hired you already, you might be able to skip the gap. Or you could keep your current job long enough to not have a gap. On the other hand who knows how 2022 looks. By this time next year you might be able to travel freely over Thailand's borders, leaving you with no trouble at all. Just go out, come back on visa exempt and extend and repeat, or go out get a tourist visa extend that and then go and come back on a visa exemption once.

Case is closed when you leave, if you don't intend on coming back and apply for a new extension at a later date.. If you do, better to solve it before leaving the country in the first place, as it can get messy if you don't.

Might be stupid question as of now.. But have you been out if Thailand since then? Other than that, for me, it failed because I filled in flight info.. When I left that blank it worked.

@Tod ********

thanks for clarifying.

I was supposed to come today to immigration in Buengkan to get my remaining 11 months stamped in on a yearly extension based on marriage. My wife was in contact with them the last few days do to other things. The regional headquarters in Khon Kaen suddenly wanted an updated copy of my bankbook, again, even though I applied in September and haven't heard from them since. Buengkan office told her everything okay again, but they will call on a later date when I can come and get my stamp. They couldn't specify when exactly. Guess immigration all over the country is running busy these days due to obvious reasons.

@Tod ********

my current stamp expires 3rd october. Counting 30 days from that is monday 2nd November. But they insisted it should be friday 30th October. I did explain my situation, that I have last school day 30th October, and cant make it from Bangkok to Buengkan after school friday. They said no problem for me to come monday. So my question is, what if I have to show my passport during that weekend. In hotel, at road points etc.

Just to add to what

@Benjamin *****

said. If you are actually still studying up until 14th October, you're good until then, then just go a week or so before to immigration, with a letter from your school saying you will stop studying on the 14th October. That will give you time to get ready to leave. Or apply for another type of extension if you have a valid reason. As he pointed out you are not on a visa, but an extension of stay. As soon as you stop studying, that extension is no longer valid. If that's the case, you are already on amnesty, and would under normal circumstances be in overstay and potentially trouble. But they have waived the fines for that until 26th September. Letting you stay until then.
