Anonymous participant - there has been discussion that with an extension to u may have to submit your paperwork again, proving you still taking courses, etc. however, it is all speculation at this point, but something to think about before making the leap and changing the visa.
Anonymous participant - Do you plan to stay in Thailand at any point for 180 days? There is still some confusion on what is required for the extension.
Anonymous participant some have been lucky and able to keep their old visa while applying, but it technically isn’t allowed and someone today who went to Vietnam was turned down because they still had a valid visa
- ah, did your search also show you that in Feb it was announced that they would be opening a new consulate in Siem Reap? I think your google search doesn’t give you all the needed information, hence why people ask on this page. Where did you get your DTV?
Anonymous participant - Oh, US-based embassies are notorious for being long. They say you are supposed to wait a month. They might not come back and ask for proof that you are still there though. That tends to be the consulates located close to Thailand.
