TLDR : Answer Summary

The user inquires about the possibility of applying for a new ED visa after extending their current one with a COVID-19 extension, while also seeking recommendations for Thai language schools. The responses indicate that obtaining a second ED visa for the same purpose of studying Thai is typically not allowed. Community members question the user's study status and past inquiries about this issue.

Why did you not go to the immigration office with your transcripts when you graduated and cacnel your current extension and get a covid extension THEN, rather than stay on an ED visa extension when you're no longer studying?

You have asked this same question four times before since September 3rd... All the same answers.

You have until your current permission to stay date expires in October... Although you have already graduated from the University and no longer studying....

IF your Ed Visa was not cancelled as studies have ended....

I wonder if you are possibly on OVERSTAY?

IF I was to bet I'd say they're not gonna let you do it, but you need to contact the thai language schools to see.
