@Edward ******
Well its at a local muay Thai place near my sons school. I already train Muay Thai with a different gym and have a gym membership elsewhere too. At least I'm gonna be fit 😅 and it is something that I will do.

Again, silly me doing things the right way 😅

Ah yes immigration told me I could do this, but they said I can't convert it 🤔 so would be for the 1 month only and no possibility to change or extend it.

Also the UK aren't giving letters for this anymore. I already tried. Thank you 🙏🙏

@Kool ******
it's not a dodgy way. Yes he needs a Ed visa so we can both stay. But I could have gotten just myself a Ed visa and he needn't have one. Obviously we need a long visa for a year at school. Immigration have been pleasent too me, and like I said, they suggested even dodgier ways to do it.

What's a valid excuse for staying in Thailand?
Shelley ********
Or marrying the person I'm with would have been even easier but unlike most of the expats here I will only marry when it's right to do so, not for a visa.

@Kool ******
and if I wanted a dodgy way of getting a visa I would have just got myself a 15 month Ed or volenteer visa for half the price and much less hassle!
Shelley ********
They said I would normally have to leave Thailand for a Ed visa and apply out of country.

I can see that all the Ed visas now have this

/19 k baht immigration fee for those on amnesty. So I guess I'm not the only one.

Its annoying as they knew my case and never told me that they wouldn't be able to help me. And seemed shocked that I wanted to get my non o visa yesterday when I went to get my sons passport stamped. Even though that's what they told me I could do 😭
Shelley ********
I couldnt see another way to go 😕 time is running out.
Shelley ********
They won't process my visa because I don't have a visa to convert.
