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.
