protagonist Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 My current extension expires on January 5th. I'd like to go in around December 5th to get my 30 day under consideration stamp and then get the year extension by the first week of January because I'll be travelling internationally from 1/15/23 to 3/10/23. Thank you advance for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of when you apply for your extension your under consideration period could start from Jan 5. That could mean that your final stamp not available prior to your departure.

protagonist Posted September 26, 2022 Author Share Posted September 26, 2022 Thank you all for the replies. I think I'll go out to CW and confirm what my options are, if I have any. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sometimewoodworker Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 (edited) Many offices allow you to apply up to 45 days early, however as has been stated several offices also date the under consideration period from the end of your extension giving a maximum total of 75 days. My local office, Udon Thani, is one that does this. I took advantage of this to time my last trip during the under consideration period. However you may be permitted to reduce the period of your current extension so changing the start date of your next extension. You should go to your office with your tickets and ask if that is possible. Edited September 27, 2022 by sometimewoodworker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nakhon Pathom IO 30 day under consideration stamp starts the day you make the application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
