My 30 days is almost up and I want to stay longer. Is it still easy to extend or do I need to leave the country? Any recent experiences?

You can extend at the immigration office in Colombo. It's usually straightforward but bring all your docs and photos. Some people do it without issues.

I extended recently, was fine but they asked for proof of funds and return ticket. Better to have everything ready.

Yeah it's doable. My guests extended last month, took a couple of days but no big problems. Go early to avoid queues.
