ORIGINAL POSTERHello!
My husband has a DTV remote worker visa and myself and two children are on a DTV dependent visa. I gave birth to our third child 5 months ago in Thailand and would like to get him on the dependent DTV as well. I am wondering if anyone has applied in Asia (i.e. Vietnam, Mayasia, Indonesia, Laos) recently for a dependent DTV and had success?
Thank you all for your help:)

That is a pretty straightforward category of DTV to apply for,
I think any of the consulates would be okay for you to apply thru,
Usually reports are that the ones in Malaysia have longer processing time, I'd try Hanoi, or HCMC they're pretty fast
