2 month extension based on being a parent.

[jimmjam]

Hello,

well its nearly time to go to immigration to get my extension.

is it true I will get 2 months for having a non-o based on having a thai child?

and also what documentation is required to show the i.o.?

 

thanks

I never heart about this, can you post some source?

If it is your first extension on the current visa, the yes, you will get 60 days for being a family member of a Thai national (In this case your child).

 

Docs are passport, birth certificate, child's tabien baan and some proof of residence(lease, letter from house owner)? I stand to be corrected, but I think that was it...

Note that your child must go with you when you apply for the 60-day extension. You can get the extension (one time only per entry) on any kind of visa, or even when entering visa exempt.

You will need their birth certificate plus a copy and a copy of their house book registry (original is not required).

Copy of your passport photo page, visa, entry stamp and TM6 departure card.
