also confirming i got my dtv approved today @ phnom penh cambodia, aus passport, living in thailand 2 years (1st year visa runs + 2nd year ed language visa)

-submitted on 16th may via issa compass visa agent

-remote worker

-only had the 500k thb in my account for 3 days before submission (still have it on me in case)

-was not asked for further docs or interview

-upon arriving in cambodia, was told by agent that its become an up-to-a-month process here now

enjoyed my stay in cambodia, no regrets, and to all those that wanna cry about paying for an agent--- kk bro we get it youre the coolest smartest guy known to man... id rather pay a $100-150 for peace of mind + saving my time + having application fee reimbursed if worst case.. i.e. having as much % chance of successful outcome... but i guess im the fool, right?

was going to originally return to thailand via land border, but due to current border dispute just gonna fly + vip fast track
Answer summary
The user successfully had their DTV visa approved while in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, after living in Thailand for two years. They submitted their application through Issa Compass on May 16th, were not asked for any additional documents or an interview, and noted that the process can take up to a month. They shared their opinion on using an agent, emphasizing the value of peace of mind and saving time, despite some community skepticism. The user initially planned to return to Thailand via land but chose to fly instead due to a border dispute.

Cambodia is perhaps the worst country in SEA to apply from.

Sounds like a Issa compass promotion, they seem to be popping up a fair bit from anonymous posters 🤔

100%. Issa Compass doesn't charge $100 as claimed on the post, they charge $500 for an application that be submitted individually for free. Scam!

i could give less of a fk if u wanted to use them or not, im just simply letting you guys know how i got my ideal outcome and whilst having peace of mind during the entire process

if you already have an engrained belief against using an agent then simply...dont?
