Hello I'm applying in Hanoi in 2 weeks.
I’m a remote software engineer and self-employed, should I apply through the freelance or business owner pathway ?
I don’t have a salary or employment contract per se, since I pay myself through dividends and cash compensations.
However, I do have a tax return showing a good income (under a different tax/company structure last year).
I’d appreciate any guidance on how to best structure or present my application.
I only stay 6 days in Hanoi before moving back in Thailand by the way, hope it's enough...
