no it doesn’t. I have a WP for teaching that is valid another two years. I’ve had a non-o ME based on spouse for years and just always chose to get that instead of the Non-b. I can’t do the extension based on marriage due to finances. I want to switch to the B now because of this situation as the non-o ME is proving to be not strong in times such as this. I actually was supposed to fly out and get one in March but air Asia cancelled my flights and then the word shut down so I couldn’t any longer. Just bad timing and now I’m in a tough spot and waiting for see what will happen.

@Benjamin *****

I wasn’t allowed to change mine from purpose of marriage to purpose of teaching. Their reason was because on the expired visa it says following thai wife. If it didn’t say that they would’ve allowed it. So weird

@Tod ********

thanks. The whole concept is so weird if you really think about it for those that are already in country and maybe want to change visas. I bet many people would even be willing to pay more to be able to do it in country if that meant they didn’t have to leave. I know I would as I’m in that situation right now and just waiting to hear what will happen after July 31.

@Tod ********

do you know the reason why someone cannot apply for different types of visas inside of “x” nation and it needs to be at a consulate or embassy elsewhere.... especially in these weird times we are in? Wouldn’t you think that immigration offices would be capable of doing it?

@John ******

not everyone has your luxurious lifestyle my man. Be respectful or go away.

this would include the 60day extension based on thai family, correct? i have this extension until june 12... so i can stay until july 31? my non-o ME visa is expired [thai spouse] and am planning to get a new one whenever this situation is complete.

@Tod ********

and if you had that visa (non o ME thai spouse), the actual visa is now expired and you are on a 60 day thai family extension? What happens in June when my 60 day thai family extension is up and traveling is still restricted? I have a WP for teaching in language school as well. I planned to get a new visa last month but my flights got cancelled the day before I was to travel. Can I get an extension based on teaching on top of this? I do not have the finances to do the marriage extension. I am well aware June is two months away but this needs to be a thought in my head.

@Robert ******

and if the job doesn’t pay the 40/month?

@Claudia ********

air Asia has cancelled all international flights until further notice.

@Jens *****

your visa should not be cancelled if you get get a 60 day extension for now. The 60 day extension will add 60 days into your current entry stamp. Once that is up then you will need to leave the country in order to activate another 90 days as long as it is before the “valid until” date on your ACTUAL VISA sticker.

Maybe

@Tod ********

or another mod can confirm that for me?
