Quick question, if I come on a visa exemption that is 45 days, when can I go to immigration to extend it? Can I do it right after I get out of ASQ, or do I have to wait until I have a certain amount of days left?

 

Also, if I come on a tourist visa that is 60 days, when can I go to immigration to extend it?

I would suggest to apply for extension in the last coupe of weeks.

I have never seen a rule quoted that covers your question.

Go too early and immigration may ask you to apply later.

Yeah thats the point of my question, I recall seeing people say something like during the last 30 days of your stay you should extend it, but I am not sure 100%.

Think your referring to annual extensions. They can be renewed up to 30 and some imm offices 45 days prior to expiry.

For extensions to visa exempt entry and tourist visa entries, I suggest that you apply from couple of weeks prior to expiry up to expiry.

In similar way for 60day covid extensions, I would apply for next one in similar timeframe mentioned above.

 

I've extended my exemption in the last week of the 30 days as that was what was said on here. However, the last time I visited I extended it at the same time I did the TM30 (arrived Friday and did TM 30 and extension on Monday).
