TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is looking to change their non-B work visa to a marriage visa and seeks guidance on the process. A comment indicates that it's essential to determine whether they are on a 90-day non-B visa or a 1-year work extension. It clarifies that to apply for a marriage visa, one typically needs to leave Thailand and apply for the non-O visa either from a Thai embassy abroad or from an immigration office after re-entering as a tourist. This is due to the rule that the first extension must be for the same reason as the original visa.

Are you actually on the 90-day non-B visa, or are you on a 1-year work extension?

If you're on a visa, you cannot do anything except leave without a re-entry permit to cancel your entry stamp and then apply for a new non-O visa either from a Thai embassy outside of Thailand or from your immigration office after you return as a tourist, if your office allows conversions to non-O inside Thailand. This is because the first extension must be for the same reason your visa was issued for, so you cannot apply for a marriage visa or marriage extension from a work visa, you can only apply from a work extension to a marriage extension.
