not really, if the risk cost is same or similar, the cost for getting Covid didn’t go down so why would the insurance

They just realized it sounds good for PR

I think you’ve always been supposed to but it’s thailand so nothings consistent, depends how many donuts the IO had

some offices don’t make you take you’re 30 day extension

Second time I’ve heard about Pats immigration giving out 30 day under consideration stamps, and haven’t heard of anyone else doing this.

I wish after the last extension when they removed the other visa types from applying they got rid of the consideration stamp. I’m here on a TR so how am I supposed to travel around when 2 weeks or 30 days later I have to come back to the same office.

I’m grateful for the Covid extensions but it’s like watching a snake eat it’s tail around here.

Plenty take longer than 3 days, and a lot of it comes down to if you had a QR code for your vax cert or anything needs to be manually approved.

But also applying is free so he can make corrects with better qualities and apply again.

it sounds like you’re saying you’re positive because you want to stay an extra 4 months, I wouldn’t be surprised either way especially with neighboring countries starting to open and the Covid extension already becoming more restricted.

If the TnG gets phased out this summer as that’s the intention the Covid extensions will almost certainly end.

@Michael *******

thankfully it’s been going back up for about 3 weeks now, hopefully gets back to early January prices

Did you get the extension stamp or an under consideration stamp to come back?

@Michael *******

any luck on any names?

I had a Covid extension last spring, went home, came back in November and got a Covid extension last month with no issue.

You might do some searching about where to go as it seems some immigration offices are a lot easier then others, in that case you would go stay a night or two in a hotel and apply there. Also be aware if they have you an “under consideration” stamp you would have to go back to that office when they say.
