ORIGINAL POSTEROne question, but can you apply for DTV while you have another visa? Or does it need to be expired/cancelled
TLDR : Answer Summary
The question seeks clarification on whether a person can apply for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) while holding another type of visa or if their current visa must be expired or canceled before applying. Comments indicate that if the individual holds an Education (ED) visa or any long-term visa, it is advisable to cancel it before applying for the DTV.
