Hi, any help appreciated. 

Has anyone had personal experience of entering on a multi entry tourist visa, converting to a Ed visa and then up until now having had covid extensions.

ANYONE in the same position as me and under the new covid extension rules get the covid extension?

Initial entry was a tourist visa but there is a 1 year Education visa stamp between initial tourist entry and covid extensions.

They won’t give Covid extensions on Non o visas. Either you renew/extend the visa or leave
