Extend Non B Visa

[JoanCN]

Hi Guys, I'd like to know how to extend my Non B thai visa.

I'm a Chinese, have entried Thailand in Feb this year to accompany my finance, I obtained my Non B visa in China ( I don't have a work permit, the agency arranges all the support docs ). I'm allowed to stay here 90 days with SINGLE entry. Now my visa is about to expired in May. I would like to stay here at least aonther 1 yr, what's the best way and how to extend my visa here?

Cheers~

Not married, not retired, not employed, no Thai children or parents, no major Thai investments all that leaves an education extension of stay (maybe). Can't think of anything else, sorry.

You do not appear to meet extension of stay criteria for a non immigrant B visa entry.

With study you could obtain and ED visa and extend every 90 days for a year. Thai language is the most common and probably useful coarse (at least 4 hours per week) and cost is about 25-30,000 baht plus 1,900 baht every 3 months for extension of stay.
