Hi, Does anyone know if DTV (dependent) can apply for girlfriend/boyfriend ? I am asking because immigration officer from the airport told me that I can apply for my girlfriend as well. So just wondering if anyone has experience with it.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The consensus among the community is that a DTV (dependent) visa cannot be applied for a girlfriend or boyfriend; it is typically restricted to spouses. Requirements like a marriage certificate serve as proof of relationship, distinguishing between romantic partnerships and legally recognized marriages. Immigration officials might have provided misleading information.
I applied for me and my wife at the same time. I did at the Vientiane and only need to show one bank account. The rest are same as everyone else except for marriage certificate.
