ORIGINAL POSTERHello everyone.
Has anyone applied for residency in Ho Chi Minh City since Sunday, December 28th? My son's application as a dependent (I've had my DTV since early October) is still pending "Document Check" today.
Thank you in advance for your replies, and best wishes for the new year to all.
