Go to the Immigration office and ask if there are any additional requirements, they changes rule every now and then. When my family visa was extended, they only require an arabic letter requesting an extention for one month. The captain only extended my visa for another 2 weeks, other can be extended 1 month, depending on the mood of the captain :) And its better if the holder of the passport is present during the extension.

Hi, thanks for your prompt reply, however there are instances that if your lucky you can get an extension for one more month, so i just need to know if there is any documentation required for this, cause on other occasions my husband just takes the passport to the visa office and they just stamp it !!!!!

No, Visit visa cannot be extended beyond 6 months, so in this scenario u have to leave country and can apply for fresh visit visa again for 6 more months, extending is not possible without making an exit.
