TLDR : Answer Summary
The inquiry is about applying for a 1-month extension on an ED visa that is valid for one year. Responses indicate that while one could apply, it's unlikely to be granted since there is no 1-month extension available. The standard extension is typically a 90-day extension for education visas, and if previous extensions have been used, the person may need to leave Thailand.

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.

You can apply but I doubt you'll get it
