First Extension For Non O

[Topah]

Hi,

I made the first extension application 30th of June and tomorrow is the date I should go and get the result. I called to the immigration today and they said they don't have the result of the extension yet. Should I just call them tomorrow about the result or go there in person? Is it common that the non o extension result takes more than the time period said on passport? My passport says that Application of stay is under consideration of the immigration bureau applicatn must contact this office again in person on 10th of August.

It is of course easy to call them again but I've learned that the lady at the other side of the phone line sometimes talks something which is not the same what really happens when I go the office. So should I go there tomorrow even the result is not confirmed today?

It is not uncommon that the decision takes longer than 30 days. Don't worry about that.

If you want to call or go and visit is up to you. If you can't trust the person on the phone I would go myself.

Have made the experience in the past that the result from Bangkok came a few minutes before closing the Immigration office, on the day stamped into the passport.

I might be wrong here, but by not going there yourself your granted extension of stay can't be extended, and you are on overstay.
