I am on an extension of stay with a work permit. My employer wants to terminate my employment and has given me until June 14th to sort things out. I have been in Koh Phangan and have my TM 30 registered there, but a since my extension and work permit were issued in Chiang Mai, I was told I have to return to Chiang Mai in order to get those cancelled. I am on my way back to Chiang Mai now, but would like to return to KP as soon as possible, so I have some questions about if/how that would be possible...1) How long after my current extension of stay is cancelled will I have to apply for the new extension? 2) If I have to apply right away (from CM), will I need to register a new TM30 in Chiang Mai? 3) If I receive the “under consideration” stamp for the Covid extension in CM, will I have to return to CM immigration for the final stamp, or could I get it in KP? 4) If I get the final stamp for the Covid extension in CM and I want to apply for another Covid extension or a new visa in the future, will I have to return to CM again or could I apply for the new visa/extension from KP? I’m sorry for such a long post. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated 🙏
