How Can a Canadian Maximize Stay Duration on a METV in Thailand?

To maximize your stay on a METV (Multiple Entry Tourist Visa) valid until April 3rd, enter Thailand on or just before April 3rd. Each entry grants you 60 days. You can then exit and re-enter to gain additional 60-day stays. This process can be repeated until the visa expiration, and you can also extend the last stay by 30 days at the immigration office for a fee of 1900 baht, potentially extending your stay to nearly nine months.
