ORIGINAL POSTER

Has anyone applied for the DTV in the US? Or is that not allowed

Asking because one point Trump said something about stopping people from trying to gain visas to other places. I know they can't stop us, but make it harder for approval here

Consensus here is that no one understands the question . Why would it not be allowed.

the nearest embassy? Each country never has more one more embassy. Also the consulate where you apply in the US depends on where you are not the physical distance.

Why would it not be allowed? Many people have applied from the US, some have had long wait times though.

I think he is trying to ask if he can apply via the US, while in Thailand. Tricking the system to think he is actually in the US.
