It's the appropriate time to be worried. If I did everything correctly I would have no cause to be worried? In any case nobody has yet provided a definite answer to my question so if you are able to then feel free?

That's what I read and it sounds very alarming.

This is what I read and that made me worried.

I do want another visa. I read something about people being fined for not cancelling their extensions which I'm quite worried about though.

About a week and a half.

It seems like it will work out as you wrote, at least both you and the school administrator are in agreement. Tickets are booked and hopefully it'll work out. Thanks a lot for your kind assistance!

Yeah, what you're saying makes perfect sense. It's only a single entry and there obviously would be no need for a re-entry permit if I'm leaving the country. I'm starting to think the office-girls here don't have a clue at all. I'm guessing that I'm administratively studying two separate courses, the first of which has a duration of 9 months after which I'll have to start over again with a new visa application for a further 6 months. I won't bother you with any more questions until I've been able to kick this up to a Westerner at the office. Thanks a lot for your help so far.

I may have misunderstood a bunch of things from the beginning because they're telling me I have to leave at that point (29th March) to extend the very same Visa from outside the country. I would thus still need to get a reentry permit. The course is sold as 9 + 6 months so the end date will be around September or so.

So I misunderstood it as the Visa ending on the 29th of March but that's actually when, according to them, I need to extend it from outside the country. Does that sound correct, do you think?

So from what I understand there's a limit to how many extensions of stay you can get and according to my school that limit is until 29th March, after which my Visa will expire and I will have to apply for a new one. I'm trying to become sure of that date and also informing myself of any problems that might occur, as they inevitably seem to do.

Indeed, hence why I made this post. I've extended it once before and will soon have to extend again. According to the school my cumulative extensions will last until March 29th when I will have to leave and apply for a new ED-Visa. The course duration is 15 months total, I believe.

I want to be 100% sure of this date before I book any flights. Wanting a second opinion before I commit.
