Hi you applied with soft power and why still ask CV , Tax return and business registration? I planning to apply with soft power and im unemployed.
1. They requested the school to send them our registration confirmation directly via email and send them a confirmation the email was sent.
2. They requested further proof of of current location in Vietnam, pics of all passport pages, pics in a popular destination with a sign of the current date, and hotel payment and reservation proof.
3. Further financial proof about my incom and business activity.
We submitted all thise plus an updated cover letter
Then they only asked for further info about the business activity, wanted a CV, tax return, business registration.
- The school is "C&M" Koh Phangan Vocational School.
- No interview.
Wasn't an easy process and i was pretty worried we wouldn't get it, but in the end success! 🙂
