I doubt he can apply for a 60 day covid extension either to allow time to find a new job. The only way of extending his current visa is with a work permit with his current employer. It looks like finding a new job and getting a new non b in the next month is his only remain in Thailand option.

I think it's been realised that the Embassy letters were a farce, and what's needed instead is first-hand evidence that the applicant genuinely can't leave Thailand so needs a special extension to avoid overstay. Very few will have this evidence, because most can leave but don't want to.

Are you unable to leave? Or you don't want to leave?

I guess it depends on morals. If these people feel comfortable paying off a corrupt person's mortgage and Benz loan, then up to them.

@Kool ******
that type are fine. But I see little difference between the brown envelope type and people smugglers.

@Tod ********
and what a rip off it is too. 6k baht might be acceptable, but 60k baht is disgusting greed.

Your visa extension has expired already if your work permit has been cancelled.

Good luck. It's not a worthless comment if other members heed the advice. Those that went down the agency route will currently be facing the most probs, as their only aim is to get your cash.

And the moral of the story is - don't wait until 4 days before your visa expires to start planning. Why do you think you'd be allowed to stay just because the border is closed?
