ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The user is inquiring about the feasibility and speed of obtaining an accompanying DTV (Non-Immigrant Visa for family members) in Thailand after facing an issue with their wife's visa application due to a clerical error. They share their current situation of being in Thailand on a tourist visa and express the need to exit Thailand to reapply for the proper visa. A community member shares their experience, indicating that they applied for their own DTV first, which took about three weeks, before successfully applying for their family's visas.
