Hey folks- I am struggling to get some clear answers and hope you can help.

My plan is to stay as long as possible. I am in the 30 day extension to my visa exempt 30 day entry. I expect to get the 60 day extension in a week or two. I tried to get some information while I was at the immigration office in Phuket but I am hard of hearing and with the noise and language barrier I came away dry. I've emailed with the Phuket Volunteers- but every answer they give me is either weirdly vague or includes something I know is wrong or isn't about the question I asked.

My Plan A is to do the language visa. Both schools I've spoken to say that they can do the conversion from exempt entry to ed visa no problem. The Phuket Volunteer said it is not possible. Any input on that is appreciated- but is secondary to my Plan B question.

Plan B is "something else". Basically I am trying to determine if there are other viable options so I can determine what is best. I am specifically curious about the investment visa and the long stay tourist visa.

Can anyone help me to understand if those are viable options? And/or if there is something else I haven't thought of?

Thank you!

Hello all together, my non-B Visa will expire beginning of February. Is there any possibility thoses days to apply for a long stay tourist visa without leaving the country? Looking forward to your feedback. Thanks in advance
