Can I revert back to an extension of stay based on employment after my spouse's passing in Thailand?

for my own curiosity if the reason for the extension changes from marriage to employment does the extension of stay remains based on a non O then ?

sorry for your loss hope immigration look after you

First let me say I am sorry for your loss, :/

The extension rules are clear on this (no matter what you're being told by a mid-level, passport stamping, paper-pushing gov't lackey :O ) IF you are on a yearly extension of stay based on marriage to a thai and your spouse dies you can stay ON that extension until it expires before you would have to apply for an extension based on another reason.

Now there is nothing stopping you from cancelling this current extension and then applying for a new yearly extension based on employment before this current extension expires, BUT I wanted you to know 100% you have the right to stay on this extension until it runs out.

This is cut from the STM.2 (สตม.๒) form you sign when you get your yearly extensions issued

Kru Susan, did you give the notice at Amphur?

Hopefully you'll find the outcome that suits you best.

I’m very sorry to hear about your loss 😞

For your current existing extension of stay, you can stay until the”until to” date.

There should be no reason at all why you can’t go back to a one year extension of stay based on employment, if you and the employer meet the criteria
