Hello, currently I have a 60 days visa which I paid 1900 THB for. It’s until December, I hear some story’s about its possible to extend it again or even convert to ED visa. Could anyone advice me?

Thanks in advance

TLDR : Answer Summary
The post discusses the confusion about a 60-day visa that is actually an extension of stay. It confirms that the user can apply for another 60-day extension for 1900 THB before the current stamp expires, but cautions against applying too early. Additionally, converting to a Non-ED visa is possible but depends on the school being attended and the specific immigration office.

Now on to the topic of whether you can get an in country Non-ED visa issued from the immigration office on a covid extension.

You need to be talking to the school you're thinking of studying at because whether you can or can't totally depends on the school that you're studying at and the immigration office you'd be using to get the 90 day Non-ED visa

First lets get you on track with what you have in your passport

You don't have ANY visa :O LOOK at your stamp and you will see it says "extension of stay permitted until" and then has a date stamped. That is NOT a visa, it's an extension..

Now that we got that sorted out you can indeed apply for another 60 day extension (using the same copies and documents you used before) for 1900baht. You need to do it before this current stamp runs out, BUT don't do it too early because the date you apply for the next 60 days is the date it starts so applying too early will make you lose days on your current stamp (most people go 3 or 4 days before their current stamp expires)

Do you by any chance know if I can also extend in Si Sa Ket? Or need to keep doing it in Bangkok?

You have an extension not a visa and yes you most likely can extend again
