Hello everyone,

Does anyone know how long the employment should be to be approved for the DTV? I have registered self-employment on Dec 1st so only for a month so far. I wanted to apply soon for the DTV.

I had a recently incorporated company (2 months) but i attached 3 invoices, 2 from long term ongoing clients, and i also attached my company bank statement evidencing the invoices being paid.

They haven't questioned any of that so far.
