I don't currently have all the paper work together just need a bit more time so was just wondering if it was possible to get a short extension in Samui. Maybe between 14 - 30 days

The most would be a 7 day extension for which you might need a ticket out of the country to show to immigration.

Read post number 2 again, it tells you it can be done with the correct paperwork, and also gives you lists of the requirements.

You can only get One Year Multiple Entry Non Immigrant Category 'B' Visa outside of Thailand.

But as has already been posted, with the correct paperwork listed above you can get a One Year Extension of Permission to Stay at your local Thai Immigration Department running from the expiry date of your latest 90 Day 'B' Visa Entry;

This extension being based on Case 2.1 of National Police Order 777/2551 (Working in the Kingdom of Thailand).
