Yeah, me visa renewal in the time frame is not possible, though if they had contacted me maybe a week ago and told me to apply again to leave etc, I could of done it, but they told me they were waiting for paper work.

Only today I was told I need to apply again.

I did FB message the owner of the school so hope that he can, al least assist me or defund me or anything, time will tell I guess 555^^

Yep, I need to learn Thai so ED visa is part of the package

I accept it's to late to fix it now, with only 2 weeks on my current visa left.
Trying to get a full refund but seems they will not.

Yeah thanks, will do that, it was a good school so just was this coming.

Reason from <snip> was the government changed the rules , best they say they San do is keep 6000 baht for themselves and refund me the rest.

I went to the school and asked to speak with him, staff refused to give me his contact details!

I studied at the school in BKK for one year. After taking the schools own Thai language test I was given three options

1. Take the test at the ministry of Education and extent my visa

2. Leave Thailand and apply for a new ED Visa

2. Change to Pattaya and just extend my visa

As spend a lot of time in Pattaya as I have Condo and business there I take the 3rd option and payed the 24,900 Thai baht

Today I called to check if my paper work was ready and if not when.

Absolute shock to be told that, I would have to come to the school again on the 11 Aug and apply again, and the that the paper work will take to to another 6 weeks, ?

My Visa expires on 29th of August,which of course would put me on a massive overstay, I paid my money to renew the extension with them over 5 weeks ago and even had my friend to call and check that everything is ok.

Can not believe that they never bothererd to inform me, OMG.

No I am left with no way of renewing my ED visa and 24,900 baht out of pocket.

You can apply for the work permit without a B visa. It can be done with a tourist visa.

Then you would take the letter of approval for the work permit application along with company documents to get a single entry non-b visa at a nearby embassy or consulate.

 

Currently I have been studing Thai so I have a Non Imm ED, The Office of Foreign Workers Administration in Bangkok and the one in Nonthaburi both Required something different.

My lawyer attended the Nonthaburi office this afternoon for a meeting with the officer and you are correct, wait for the letter of approval etc and visit a nearby consulate.

 

Thanks for your reply^^

A visa can only be obtained outside of Thailand, you will have to go outside.

 

Years ago (not sure if you still can do) you could change the current visa to a Non Immigrant B (would not be a visa but an extension of the current visa into a Non Imm within Thailand.

 

Hmm, so my lawyer cannot even apply for the paper work for me to obtain the Non-B without me first being outside of Thailand?

I'm currently in Thaland and wish to apply for a Non-Immigrant Visa Category B visa.

 

The Office of Foreign Workers Administration, Department is telling me that I have to leave Thailand before my agent can apply for the paper work for my Non-B visa.

 

My understanding was that I could apply here in Thailand, wait for all the paperwork, travel outside  of the Kingdomand apply for the Non-B visa and return and apply for my work permit.

 

can anyone confirm either way?

 

Thanks in advance.
