Hi, I'm in a visa pickle and could use some advice. My work permit (BOI) was cancelled in November last year but as I was out of the country already at that time, my 2-year non-b visa extension was never cancelled and shows a validity until December 2018.
When coming back to BKK for a 1-month holiday this April, I expected to receive a visa exemption stamp, but instead, I was stamped into the aforementioned visa extension – which made me believe it was still valid. Been in and out of the country without any problems several more times this way.
I recently moved back full time to live here with my family. The visa extension will expire in December, and I'm planning to go back home to apply for a new visa (non-o dependent, based on my wife's work visa).
However, I only recently found out that my visa extension should've been cancelled. Obviously it's too late to cancel it now, and I'm technically on overstay (I've been on this visa for a little more than 90+ days in total over the past year after the WP cancellation, if you count all my trips in the country last year). I don't dare to go to immigration by myself as I'd risk a blacklist. I don't mind the fine, but blacklist would be very bad as I have my family here.
Has anyone been in a similar situation, and is there any way to fix this? Would really love some help!
