Ahoj all,
Update:
New address of Immigration office is Tuřanka 1554/115b, 627 00 Brno - Slatina
I already posted instruction how to extend validity of long term residency permit (click here). But rules and regulations are being changed eventually. Needless to say, as we all know and feel effects of COVID-19 pandemic. It affected and still changing normal procedures.
In short, currently the best and most advisable, I would say even only possible option to submit application, is via post mail. So, I will cover in this post in details how to do it, from my own experience.
But before, be aware that you can get latest and official informations/updates on following link:
Please keep in mind that this post covers Long term residence permit extension for family union topic. You will need following papers.

- copy of bio-metric card
- Complex health insurance
- copy of insurance card or contract
- 1 photo (passport size)
- In case extension it is not needed, but it is still require by law, so include it too
- Green application form
- You can take it from the the Immigration Office or download (click here)
- Stamp in value 2500 CZK
- When you apply you have to provide stamps for value 2500 CZK all at once
- Accommodation contract (in case of rental)
- Either original or notary verified copy
- Date of signature (contract date) must not be older than 180 days at the time of submitting. In case contract signed more than 180 days ago, you need to provide supplement document, which proofs that contract is extended or still valid.
- Confirmation about your net income for past 3 months, confirmation of employment, notary verified copy of your original employment contract

Deadline for the applicant. The applicant is obliged to submit the application for long-term residence within the fixed period of time starting 120 days and expiring a day prior to the expiration of his/her long-term visa.
Once you have all these papers, signed with proper date, you will have to send them to following address:
Ministerstva vnitra OAMP, Hněvkovského 30/65, 617 00, Brno
Obviously, you want to track letter and ensure that it will be delivered. So you send it as Registered letter (Doporučené psaní). For that you either need present Czech Post Customer Card (Zákaznická karta) or fill Posting Form (Podací lístek) out. You can get Posting Form from any Post office and better have it advance, otherwise you will have to fill it out during posting and it time consuming.

Please note that all this steps and rules could be altered, so follow official publications also.
Thank you all for views.

Track status of your application in frs.gov.cz and once approved either via phone call or web page make reservation for biometrics.
