I am currently on an expired medically extended tourist visa (visa exempt -> extension at CW -> medical extension at hospital) and am on amnesty. I have a non-covid ailment and need minor surgery, which I would recover from before September 26.
My questions are the following:
1 - would I be able to use this surgery as grounds to apply for a Medical visa? And...
2 - would I be able to convert that medical visa into a non-b (i have an employer ready to support documents)?
Thanks
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquires about the possibility of applying for a Medical visa after having an expired medically extended tourist visa and whether that Medical visa can be converted into a Non-B visa with employer support. Comments indicate that while medical treatment can be sought on any visa, converting a medical extension to an employment-based visa is generally not possible.
