Will My Non-Immigrant O Visa Be Affected If My Passport Expires Soon?

Visa Requirements Non-O Visa Passport Renewal

Apr 10, 2020

ORIGINAL POSTER

So far in all this covid stuff I have been lucky with visa requirements. I am on a non imm O extension, based on retirement, expiry 28/11/20. However I had a trip home to the UK cancelled for May, one reason was to renew my UK passport which is running out of pages. It expires 8/21.

I just realised that if I dont renew my passport (probably in VFS Bangkok) I may not get a full year. Will I get a new expiry to match the passport expiry, or will I get refused?

Looks like I need a new passport before I go to submit  my application in Oct/Nov this year. Is this correct?

Thanks
