ORIGINAL POSTER
I’m in Houston for some medical treatment in September and I could apply for my dtv from there. I have a bank account which could show a usd balance so that wouldn’t be a problem.

Can anyone comment on if the process is easy or difficult and how long it would take? Maybe US in general as a foreigner?

Will it just be easier to wait and travel to another Asian country?

I’m on a UK passport. I could even travel back to the UK in between and apply from there. Thank you

The particular embassy and consulate websites usually tell you whether it is for citizens or residents only or if any nationality can apply.
