Should I request a new employment contract for my DTV application if I am currently a remote worker?

hey, I see you’re still going through your application. In my opinion only, if you want to request a new contract it wouldn’t hurt, I would probably still attach the old contract just in case it’s useful for the embassy to know it’s not a new job?

since I presume asking for a new contract will have updated dates of your employment.

I suppose you could ask your employer if they’d be willing to back date the contract, but typically they would sign with the current date of signing.

I also think the embassy understands the nature of peoples job changes, so long as you can prove officially that the nature of the job has changed. If you want to ask your employer to state that in your letter you can, (with a signature, preferably stamp chopped with a company letterhead).

Maybe something like “that xx is employed at xx company has changed the nature of their role from full time in office to remote work full time from date DAY-Month-YEAR” and this will remain a permanent arrangement”

idk.. something like that

feel free to re-word, I’d just make sure to add your name, and that the employer made the approved change from x date and if you want to state that there’s no end date to that arrangement.

I also understand you want to submit all your documents right the first time, however I’m not really sure what the impact is? It’s quite common for the embassy to request more documents since the instructions are so vague and this DTV is new for people applying and the embassy.

Good luck!
