I went to the immigration office December 30th 2009 to get a 1-year extension on my non-o visa. I got the "under consideration" stamp saying I had to come back Feb 2 2010, which I did, and I got the full extension untill Jan 3rd, 2011.

However it just occurred to me, do I have to do the 90 day report based on my application date December 30th, or the day it was approved Feb 2nd?

If the former I will have to go to the immigration office today. What should I bring in order to do the residence notification? Pictures, rental contract, money etc??

Today and rental should do it. 90 days from first application is the wording.

Yes today but there is a 7 day window either side of the report date.

TM47 Form can be downloaded Here

In my passport the 90 notification is stamped together with the final approval, thats why I mistakenly assumed it was from that day.

Thank you for your swift reply, I am on my way to immigration
