Hello all, would appreciate your input!

I am looking to apply for my DTV in a few months, through the Australian Canberra Embassy.

I've very recently started freelancing (less than a month ago), so my current income is still quite low (indefinite/permanent contract for $1000 AUD a month, but potential to increase with more clients in the coming months). I'll also definitely be able to fulfill the 500k THB requirement.

Does anyone have experience as a freelancer getting approved for your DTV, especially with a "lower" income?

Answer summary

The user seeks advice on applying for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) through the Australian Embassy while being a freelancer with a current low income of $1000 AUD per month, but meeting the 500,000 THB requirement. A commenter indicates that there is no minimum income requirement for DTV applications, sharing their own positive experience of being approved with a low income.

There is no minimum income requirement so you are ok. I was approved as a freelancer with very low online income at the time of my application.
