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.

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.
