Can I extend my Education visa in Thailand beyond 12 months with a 15-month program?
Despite the meant reasons my language school visa experience was a bit shady, I find myself feeling tempted again.
I was told I could only do one Ed visa once. The school is telling me there is a program where they can do a 15 month program for someone who has already done 12 months.
Any knowledge of this?

if they tell you they can do it knowing you already did a year, they probably can. Whether it's shady or not is 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️Jack ****************

are you aware of a 15 month education visa?Brandon ************
@Jack ***************
it's most likely 3 months ED visa and 12 month extension either 12 months at once (definitely sketchy and a red flag as only university students can get this) or 12 months of extension every 90 days.Activity
