What do my visa stamps/paperwork mean?

[Boy Wonder]

I have a non-ed visa for 12 months, and it expires sometime in the middle of 2020. My school gives me extension letters every 90 days, and I take those to immigration to get an additional 90 days until the visa expires. For the sake of this question, just ignore the extension letters for now. My question is specifically about a 30 day extension within a 90 day period (60 + 30).

 

I'm a bit confused because the stamp and the notice paper have different dates. As you can see, the visa stamp says November 20, but the notice paper says December 20 (which implies they already included the 30 day extension).

 

Which date should I follow? Do I still need to visit immigration by November 20 to get the additional 30 days, or has this already been given to me?

The top one is your extension date.

Expires 20th Nov.

 

The bottom one is your 90 day address report.

You have to report it again on 20th December.

 

The two are not related and are two different things.

Am I entitled to a 30 day extension if I go to immigration by November 20 (in addition to the standard extension with the letters from the Thai school), or am I only eligible for the standard extension with the letters from the Thai school?

 

To elaborate further, I guess the confusion comes from the fact that they gave me 60 days, rather than 90 days, when I extended my ED visa for the first time. I thought ED visa extensions were 90 days...so if they gave me only 60 days, does that mean I can extend it for 30 days (similar to the tourist visa extension) before I do the standard 90 day extension again?

 

I already asked the school and they seem to be misinformed. They said the date on the 90 day notice paper (December 20) is the day I do my extension, which is wrong based on what you're saying. They always give me contradictory information each time I asked, so I find it hard to trust their word, which is why I came here in the first place.

You can only extend your stay based on the papers supplied by your school. The initial visa you got is already spent and it's expiration date is irrelevant. The only thing that matters are the extensions you get from immigration.

 

The 90 day report (second picture) is a separate thing where you have to report your address every 90 consecutive days you spend in Thailand, and it has nothing to do with your extensions.
