He;s retiring in early Sep 22 and will be applying for the STV. Can he still renew it 2 times, even though it (currently) expries on the 30th Sep 22.
When he is ready, can he apply for an Non-O based on being over 50 and is retired, inside Thailand or does he have to do a order run.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The friend is inquiring if he can renew the STV multiple times before its expiration and if he can apply for a Non-O visa based on retirement while in Thailand. A comment suggests that applying for another visa inside Thailand from an STV is not allowed and advises waiting for updates on Thailand's immigration policies closer to the travel date.

To be completely honest you're asking WAY too early to know what will be what that far in advance. ๐ฎ
Have him pay attention to the news about thailand, visas, borders opening this coming year and make a decision closer to when he's gonna be coming here.
