ORIGINAL POSTERSo on the DTV after the 5 years is up do you just reapply for visa or how does that work?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation discusses uncertainty surrounding the renewal process for the DTV visa after its initial 5-year period. Given that the visa is still relatively new, there are no definitive answers available about whether applicants will need to reapply or what criteria might be considered for extending the visa.

No one here could reply to that question. It's a tourist visa and after 5 years, they may reconsider or not your status. Time will tell.

No one can answer that question at the moment... but I wouldn't bet on the continued existence of the DTV... 🙄🤔😁

Does a 5-year DTV visa expire with an expiring passport, or can it be transferred to a new passport?
