ORIGINAL POSTER
Hey everyone. I'm coming to the end of my ED visa and just need a few more weeks here before a trip home.

Is there any way of extending at the local immigration office? Will a border bounce go smoothly? Can I get 30 days at the border straight after the ED? I'll have a flight out booked already to show if that helps.

Thank you to anyone who can help shed some light on this for me.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking advice on extending their ED visa before a trip home, specifically whether they can extend at a local immigration office or if a border run would be advisable to obtain an additional 30 days. They mention having a flight booked as proof of departure and are looking for clarity on these options.
