TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation indicates that while it may be possible to apply for a 1-month extension on an ED visa, it is unlikely to be approved. There is also clarification that there is no such option as a 1-month education extension, and applicants may either apply for a 90-day extension or need to leave Thailand if they have maximized their education extensions.
90 DAY REPORTING RESOURCES / SERVICES
  • Use the trusted Thailand 90 Day Reporting Serviceto get your in-person report done and mailed to you for as low as 375 THB (even if the online system doesn't work for you).
  • For immediate assistance, contact Thai Visa Centre directly via LINE at @ThaiVisaCentre or Email them.
  • Join the Thai Visa Advice Facebook Group to ask your questions, and get advice from others.

There's no such thing as a 1 month education extension. You either qualify for a 90 day education extension or you change extension types. But if you've already maximized your education extensions then you'll need to leave Thailand.
