You have been staying in a foreign country for the last two years, and your visa is about to expire next June. However, you are planning to take a three-months professional course. You will need a visa extension. Write a letter to the consular in the embassy and ask for an extension on your visa.
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing
this
letter to request you to extend me a student visa as my visa going to expire in June month and I want to study further
for a short term.
I have been here for the last
two years and have completed my master's in computer which I found worth it. Because of no experience in my field, It would be hard to get a job in the market and that's why I decided to do one of the short-term courses which is based on practicals rather than theory. This
course will help me to get practical knowledge which will enhance my skills ultimately. I have applied for this
program which will require three months of class practice, but as my visa going to expire next month
, It is my humble request to you give me an extension on my stay to complete my dream.
If you require any information, please let me know. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Your Faithfully,
