Hi! Thank you for welcoming me into your group. I am a therapist in MA and looking to move to Thailand around this time next year with the plan to work remotely with my current clients. I am a single mom with a daughter who will be graduating from high school next year. As I continue to do my research, I was told that the best visa option for me to pursue would be the DTV as it would allow me to work remotely and remain in the country longer before having to renew. Along with the other requirements, is this the best course to pursue? Thanks.
Answer summary
A therapist from Massachusetts, planning to move to Thailand next year, inquires about the DTV visa as a suitable option for remote work while staying longer in the country before needing to renew. Commenters confirm the DTV visa allows for 180 days per entry over its 5-year validity.
