dairy queen Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 That dreaded time of year is nearly upon me. My current extension (based on marriage) expires on 19 March. What's the earliest date that I can apply for another extension? I have just realized that a trip to Japan is looking precarious unless I can extend at least 30 days before my current extension expires. Thanks in advance for any help/advice!

ubonjoe Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 You can do the extension up to 30 days early or 45 days at some offices. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJCM Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 It depends on your IO, some allow only 30 and other ones 45 days but don’t forget the under consideration period (which afaik (but could be wrong)) starts from the date your extension ends. (We applied early one time and had to wait 45 days on the under consideration period, that is why I changed to retirement (hated that under consideration period)) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know if Chaengwattana immigration can do 45 days @uboljoe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(But hoped wasn't the case). The trip is for 10 days about 1 week after my current extension expires. I don't think you can get a re-entry stamp while 'under consideration', can you? If not, I'm boned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFAIK you can get a re—entry permit for that. but @ubonjoe will know the ins and outs, we always stayed put and even didn’t leave the province. Friends on the same extension got summoned in their under consideration period, but the paperwork they submitted was completely in order.

CW starts the under consideration period from the day you apply. If you apply 45 days early you would have have your new extension done, FYI you can get a re-entry permit for the under consideration period. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
