TravelerEastWest Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Non Imm O 60 days until new extension why? I recently did my annual Non Imm O 60 days extension which usually is finished in 30 days; this time my time to finish and pick up the extension is in 60 days. Is this something new? (Note I am in Chiang Mai not in Bangkok where i was before.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Starting with the flooding last year most applications have required more than the previous 30 days (it used to be about 45 days normal) so it seems they have started to make allowance for this and don't require you to come back only to be told come again next week/month as has been happening all too often.

ubonjoe Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 (edited) Did you do your extension 30 days early? Most immigration offices start the 30 day period on the date your permit to stay is going to run out. Meaning every day you apply early is added onto the normal 30 days.

This makes sense - thank you. "Did you do your extension 30 days early? Most immigration offices start the 30 day period on the date your permit to stay is going to run out.

Yes, I did my extension 30 days early (for many years in Bangkok) - but in the past it was always come back in 30 days - even after the floods.
