One last question: I am planning to do my visa run (although I am flying into Vieantiiene on Monday and returning to BKK on Tuesday. It is about one week before my first tourist visa (60 days + 30 day extension) expires. Does anyone think that this will be problematic on my return from Laos to DMK?
David: Thanks. The school is going to take 1-2 months to process the paperwork (or so they told me). Thus, they want me to get an extension, and then, when all the paperwork nightmare is done and all the paperwork is done, I will go and apply for the non-B visa as a teacher. I only started to work there two weeks ago.
