Actually, the under consideration stamp is the first month of your extension so when you go back, you’ll get the other 11 months stamped in your passport. Just remember if you plan on leaving the country before your year is up it’s a good time to get your reentry permit as well.
the report I read this morning from TPN news explicitly said this is supposed to be a quote from immigrations that the rule is two Visa exempts entries per calendar year.
there are no rules or statutes of law that specifically outlines how many times and what kind of visa can you come in or out of the country. They have only set for a series of guidelines and it even states in those guidelines, when the rubber meets the road, it’s up to the discrimination of the immigration officer.
It depends on when you apply. Just remember when you do receive your EVisa it will be only valid for 90 days from the date, it was issued, in which during that time you would have to enter Thailand or the visa would be expired.
