Need an advice urgently!
I went for Visa extension today (Non-B 1year)!
When officer started checking my passport and documents, there was some trouble which still makes me confused. I got my degree from Bangkok University, and been on Ed visa for 4 years! After that, i got TR visa(3 months*2 times), then finally i got a Non-B (3months)! The problem was my last Non-Ed stamp, which i got on 9th October 2015 until 11October 2016! I finished my studies in July, and stayed in country until my Non- ed visa expired (11th October 2016)! All my paperwork from work is completely fine, but the officers told me that my university transcript says that my date of leaving was 30th of July 2016! After that I can't stay in country even though my visa stamp was until October!
So I've been told that i have Overstay for 3 months (from july 30th:last day of studies- 11th October (last day of visa stamp)) and. Ow i need to pay 20.000baht!
What is wrong here? My university advisors are also confused with this issue caused by officers' decision!
Your advice will be so appreciated
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking urgent advice regarding an overstay issue after applying for a visa extension. The confusion arose because the user finished their studies earlier than the validity of their extension. Immigration officers indicated an overstay of 3 months, based on discrepancies between the university transcript and the visa validity. The user has been told to pay a fine of 20,000 Baht and is uncertain about the implications of this fine and their next steps.
