Please note that there is a new additional requirement for extending your
one-year Non-immigrant ED visa: the Certificate of Classmate
(http://interaffairs.psu.ac.th/…/Certificate_of_Classmate.pdf).
It is a one-page form that a classmate of yours has to fill out,
certifying that you both attend the same class. The classmate can be Thai
or another international student. One student can certify only two
classmates per year. The form is valid for 15 days only, so do it less
than 15 days in advance from your 1-year visa extension application.
You can find all the details and the form download link in the Facebook Note:
