Is it possible to change from a Non-O Visa (based on marriage) with a 1-year extension of stay to a half Thai child dependent visa? My wife can continue working while I process my visa, which is easier as she works away sometimes. tia 🙏

PS: I'm about to renew my 1-year extension of stay - due 13th May. (SriRacha Immigration Office)

That is immigration office specific and you need to go talk to them and see.

Some offices won't let you get a "raising thai child" extension if you're married to the mother..
