@]imjmn - Yes I agree and in fact I repeatedly reminded my school about the situation but it turned out that my contact at the school was fired the week I was to get the papers so it delayed everything by a few critical days.

In any case, I went today and I had no trouble at all. I was able to extend my stay for another 90 days.

Thanks to everyone who chimed in.

I don't mean to be nosy but I hope you will let us know about your decision and outcome of the situation as it might be useful to others

I have decided to wait until Tuesday. I will post the results after then.

Wish me luck

Thanks again for the quick responses.

Help.

I am living in Thailand on a student visa for 1 year. But every 90 days I have to go to the immigration office to extend it's validity for another 90 days.

Now my problem is that I have to extend before Dec 5 (tomorrow. and a Saturday). But I just got my paperwork from my school today and by the time I arrived at the Immigration offices they were already closed.

So my question is this, is it better to wait until Tuesday (office is closed for the King's birthday on Monday) and just go to the immigration office as usual and extend it (and probably pay some fine for being late) ?

Or should I expect that I will not be able to extend an overstayed visa in the first place and should leave the country tomorrow so that I avoid overstaying in the first place. But if I leave then I have to jump through more hoops and probably leave another time to get a new student visa entirely.

Please.... if anyone knows how things work in my particular circumstances, can you provide any advice.

Thank you so much.
