ORIGINAL POSTERIf I am getting royalties that pay for my living does that qualify as a work DTV? I file taxes under a sole proprietorship but could show the monthly deposits from the companies that pay me.
Just wondering, I fortunately (or unfortunately) already have the Medical soft power DTV as I need to go to thailand for a lot of medical care anyway.

TLDR : Answer Summary

They mention that they file taxes as a sole proprietor and can provide proof of monthly income. The discussion includes advice on presenting income documentation and questions regarding the necessity of this if they already possess a Medical soft power DTV.

I would think so. Show your portfolio of work and the income from it?
