Hello,
I am in Ho Chi Minh City applying for the remote worker visa category.
I was in a well paid remote role for many years, but the months of April - November I was unemployed living on generous savings from a redundancy payout. I have been in new remote employment since November 2024, but cannot evidence salary during that time as I was living on my redundancy savings payout.
If I am rejected under the remote worker visa category, would this prevent me from applying again under the soft power option?
I believe I fulfil the requirements however as my case is a little bit complex and non-straightforward I feel it might just be rejected under the remote worker option and I'd be better off going the soft power option instead.
Thoughts?
Kindly appreciated ♥️
