Can anyone suggest another reaction which also rearranges an aromatic primary amide to a primary amine with one less carbon atom?

......make the carbamate then hydrolyse to the desired amine....solo/java

I removed all the posts related to nonsensical insinuations on account of parabola's intentions. Please restrain on accusing new members of being drug cooks when the question shows nothing of this kind.

Alternatives to Hoffman rearrangements are all the related rearrangements:
Curtius rearrangement
Lossen rearrangement
Schmidt rearrangement
