Does anyone know how soon after obtaining the DTV that you have to use it? Is it within 3 months of initial valid from date or longer?

Thanks in advance
Answer summary
The DTV (Digital Tourist Visa) is valid for 5 years, and you can use it anytime within that validity period. There is no requirement to use it within 3 months of the initial valid from date.
