Changing schools

[Mickey Cohen]

Hi,

Im changing schools so I need to get a new visa non b and a new WP.

How to make the switch WITHOUT leaving the country?

Thanks so much

You new school would need to apply for your work permit and obtain a application approval letter.

Then with a termination letter your current school you could cancel your current extension and apply for a new one showing the approval letter and documents from your new school. Then after the old work permit is canceled then your new one will be issued.

Could I have a bit more details?

I need to do this the same day?

You would need to do the cancellation and new extension application during the same trip to immigration. If you were applying to different immigration office you could go to the old one to before the your termination date they would post date the cancellation. Then apply for the new one on the date the extension will be canceled.

The work permit application would need done far enough ahead of time of the cancellation.date to get the approval letter.

The old work permit could be canceled ahead of the termination date and then the new work permit could be issued on the date you start working for the new company.

If living in BKK, it would indeed be CW-road.

My new school doesnt seem to understand. They re saying I need to go out and get tourist visa which I really dont want to do.
