Hi. 

I could really use some help. 

I am going to leave my current job and join another school in May. 

Is it possible to transfer/change my current non-B to new school without leaving the country?

I am aware that once I cancel my WP, my visa will be cancelled as well. But I can apply for 7 days extension. 

What documents should I need to prepare?

You will need to coordinate your new employment with your employer and Thai immigration to get a new extension of stay.

You would be wise NOT to leave your current teaching job. You will have to leave Thailand if you do as you are not eligible for a COVID extension.

And that 7 day stay stamp is NOT what you want...it means you have 7 days to LEAVE Thailand. Once its in your passport there is no way to stay...must leave within 7 days.
