Has anyone had recent experience with the Washington, D.C. embassy processing the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) under the remote work / workcation track?

I'm applying through the e-Visa portal next week with assistance from Siam Legal. Once my primary visa is approved, my spouse and two kids (ages 7 and 12) will submit their dependent applications.

Given the staggered timeline with dependents, I'm trying to get a realistic sense of turnaround times in D.C. right now. How long did your approval take, and did D.C. ask for any extra documentation or "wet signature" revisions? Any recent data points would be appreciated!

I’m applying for Washington as well in about 3 weeks. If you don’t mind me asking are you submitting the FBI background check? And if so are you using an apostille or submitting the PDF as you receive it to your inbox from them?
