Yes and was approved an ED for 3 months instead with special date. Asked why this happened and they said it all depends on the person who views your application what they see fit to approve
was pretty straightforward, but keep in mind that your application will be reviewed by the embassy in Jakarta, so you might need to go there if they request an interview
Bali goes under Jakarta Embassy - Main extra request they ask if everything else is ok, is images of all pages of passport so can already include them as supporting documents to save time with them asking it.
They are also sometimes issuing Multiple Entry Tourist Visas if they do not think you are fit for DTV, so make sure you explain clearly how your application is more fit for a 5 year visa, not a 6 month one. How you support yourself and what your plan is within these 5 years, not only first 6 months.
Total waiting time there around 2 weeks - 1 month max usually, the more you add when you submit the less you wait.
Question was and is " have someone applied for DTV visa from Bali recently? was it easy?"
Answer is and will stay the same, even when others going to explain that you need acces to a printer to print the visa, or a machine to laminate, or be fit enough to row your boat to Thailand.
