ED visa to Non-B for Work Permit

[c2k0]

Anyone knows if changing an ED visa to a non-B visa without leaving Thailand becomes possible now?
Or if changing extension of stay stamp based on education (ESBOE) to extension of stay stamp based on  working (ESBOW)  without leaving Thailand is possible?????

You cannot change non immigrant visa categories without leaving the country.

If is possible to change the reason for your extension based upon attending a school to one based upon working.

But the problem can getting a work permit application accepted and a approval letter for it that is needed to apply for the extension based upon working. If your intended employer has contacts at the local work permit office they may be able to get it done.
