What visa options are available after my 60-day extension due to COVID, particularly for a language course?
I have got my visa extension for 60 days until 27 March due to pandemic of corona. After that, what kind of visa can I switch to? I am planning to have a language course for visa extension. Can I do it?

no one yet knows if they will extend this date. Probably won’t announce anything until a couple of days prior. But they have extended it twice already and as borders are still closed will probably do it again. Just speculation of course so no guarantees. Dario *************
so my cuurent covid visa is valid until the 30th of march. can i apply for another one before this one runs out ?

Yes you can. You can apply on the last week of March, and can stay until the last week of May. Benjamin ******

You should be able to obtain an Ed visa. But you need to start the application process soon as you’ll need at least 30 days left on your current stamp
