Where do I process my visa extension in Chiang Mai if my permission of stay is for teaching?
Chiang Mai specific, posted in Expats Chiang Mai but no answer yet.
My annual permission of stay expires the end of this month, category: teacher/lecturer at university. Since some things have moved to Promenada I would like to know if my category is still handled at the airport office or now at Promenada. Thanks in advance.
Also, does the Sept 26 info apply to me, still a bit confused about that as my expiration for annual extension is Sept 30.

Summary so far
The user is seeking clarification on where to process their visa extension for a teacher/lecturer visa in Chiang Mai, as the annual permission to stay is expiring soon. They are confused whether to go to the airport office or the new Promenada location, and if the recent updates about visa amnesty pertain to their situation, given they are on a valid extension rather than amnesty.

OPNo, stopped working and he is aware. Contract not renewed due to government funding loss.

OPI'm going to the airport one tomorrow after someone in another group said that was the place. Will post back the results. Work permit now renewed.
A colleague at work converted his permission of stay based on work to one based on retirement at the airport one recently.

Did your colleague continue working? An extension of stay based on retirement does not allow a person to have a passportWannikea *********

I don't think anyone here knows; but I recommend trying whatever is closer to you first.
>Also, does the Sept 26 info apply to me
No, you are not on amnesty, but on a valid extension of stay.
