there are major govt. holidays every day but the 26th July and the 31st July. Should I wait until the 31st or go in on the 26th? Thanks. I've been gone for a couple of years & forget how do do things like this. .

Go tomorrow if you can , it will be busy before and after a holiday

Even better, go today !   It will not be granted immediately, and you will be required to come back to collect it.  With Public Holidays looming, there will be increased demand, so there is no time to lose!

You could of already done the extension. Most offices will do them a week or 2 early. You lose no days by doing it early since the extension starts from the end of your 60 day entry.

Today or tomorrow would be best.

It will be done while he waits. No office has people requesting at 30 day extension return later to pick up their passport. There a couple of offices that have people return the next day for long stay extensions.

For a thirty day extension?? It would be processed and passport returned immediately.

Yes, you should go today. I am because mine expires Saturday. Wished I'd have planned for yesterday.

thank you, esp for info that the extension doesn't start until the day the visa itself expires.  going 'home'  takes all your energy & memory cells evidently.

 

now i must look for that promenada bus .it's already 8 45 am...
