TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking advice on their DTV application in Frankfurt and has uploaded standard documents such as an employment contract and remote work permission. Advice from community members suggests ensuring that documents are recent and provide a current employment statement. A user who had a similar experience shared their successful document submission, which included financial statements and approval updates from the consulate.

Applied on the 8th of October in Frankfurt. Just got approved today.

Documents handed in:

1.Employment contract from 2004 and my added Remote work permission from 2020 All on company letterhead stating HRB number and Tax number .

2. Account statement from September plus account activity statement for October.

Financial Overview with a list of all my assets

Salary slip for September which shows year to date income as well.

3.All the other items passport,

Photo , current location proof have been uploaded as well.

Additional Consulate request:

Upload photo again. Too unclear.

Current statement from employer that I am working there.

That request was a little funny for me.

The company's name is my family name(not common).

On the company's letterhead I am listed as the CEO and they had my September payslip.

Ok so I wrote them a statement myself on letterhead.

- did you submit the documents in German or English? The letters are easy in English, but the bank statement?

That letter has be 6 months old or newer. Something from 2020 will not work but if you are the owner, you can just write a letter stating you can work from anywhere remotely and sign it. I own my own company and did this and got approved. I would highly recommend you include this. Hope this helps

Employment contract and employment certificate. Certificate being a document stating you are currently employed by the company and your duties or permission to work as a remote worker. Both items you mentioned aren't current documents.

Now they ask me for the following documents:

1.Current order or assignment

What order shall I show them?

And also what do they mean with the portfolio?

I hope someone can help me.

I don’t get reply on email. And nobody answers the phone since more then a week. I’m afraid my application expires"
