How does the Non-Immigrant O visa extension work for my husband in Thailand?

David ************

I do this same thing every year. 30 days before this one expires you do the same thing all over again. They will stamp his passport saying it's under consideration. Then they will stamp it again with the extension. So two stamps every time. Also remember to greet a reentry permit if he plans to go out of country.
