You should check your local Thai Embassy website for the application process. There are SP courses with Thai language as part of the course. Full time Thai language comes under Education visa so it is not really issued via DTV. If you extend your DTV at immigration you need to show course renewal docs if the course has ended. No current requirement to do so with a border hop. How long it takes depends on where you apply.
