ANYONE BEEN ACCCEPTED A THIRD TIME????

DTV JAKARTA! Workcation: I work online with my own personal training/nutrition business.

First application; rejected. Likely as my savings weren't seasoned.

Second application; approved but for METV :( So devastated!

Meeting with an agent to discuss future options but feeling very disheartened. I think that maybe my cover letters mentioned tourism alongside my work, when I should have made it more of a "work" focus. 

Anyone else been in this situation?

Answer summary

The original poster has applied for a Thai visa three times, facing rejection on the first attempt and approval for a multiple-entry tourist visa (METV) on the second. They express concern that their focus on tourism rather than work in their cover letters might have contributed to their issues. They are seeking advice from others who have been in similar situations regarding the possibility of receiving a third acceptance and discussing their future options with a visa agent.
