@Benjamin *****

many thanks. He will have to take his chances in Bangkok with the unable to travel due to covid. No other options available to him apart from this one right? (he's currently on a one year non-immigrant B extension linked with his work).

Covid after cancellation of work permit/non-immigrant B visa. Reason I asked was I saw a posting on here saying covid extensions are up to the discretion of the IM officer and a similar extension request at Bangkok Immigration had been refused. Thought maybe he could get it here in CM when he comes to visit me.

Thanks all for the comments. Sadly after visiting the IO they told me it's not possible. Hence I will have to apply for a new type off visa from the UK since I need to travel to the UK before my current visa expires on 22nd December.
