@Stuart ********

that's what I thought. My family friend wants at least a month.

Can't you just apply for one? Either in home country before you arrive. Or change from the one you have already.

What embassy are you applying through?

@Jim ******

so what's that got to do with tax?

@Mark *******

his comment says it costs $20,000 to pay for a retirement visa. It doesn't cost that.

@Simon *******

you didn't have a 90 day visa. You had 60 days and extended it so the stamp tells you what day you had to leave by. Ramifications of overstaying? Example: You get stopped for some reason, status is checked and you're on overstay. Then, worse case scenario, could be taken to airport and made to buy ticket and leave, fined, banned. You might get away with it but it's obvious it would be an overstay you could have avoided. Or. . they might just tell you to pay overstay on exit. 🤷

@Damo **********

if he's not already done the extension before his 60 days were up, he'll be on a massive overstay already. No one knows what he's done because he hasn't clarified anything properly.

@Pui ****

he's not replying so no one knows if he has assumed he's got 90 day visa in the country, which he hasn't. So it would help if he clarified.

Did you extend this visa by 30 days already, so have the 90 days? But when you flew in you didn't notice you'd booked your flight for 96 later? Can you change your flight?

Well you're aware you will be on overstay. So it could be a problem.
