ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The consensus is that you need to wait until your current Non-O visa expires before applying for a Non-OA visa, as holding two active visas simultaneously is not allowed. Applying for a new visa generally cancels any existing visas you have, and it's advised to consider why you would want to switch to a Non-OA visa, given the additional requirements such as insurance and a police background check.
