Sharing my DTV experience.

Applied from Ho Chi Min, Vietnam. Applied on Thursday, got accepted today (Monday).

- Provided my September (only) bank statement, with balance shown of course.

- A friend of mine has been asked to provide, as a proof of location, his passport stamp proving he was in Vietnam as well as a hotel OR flight booking. So I did submit my stamp and hotel booking.

- As I’m a freelancer, I provided for my proof of work a PDF containing links to and screenshot of my LinkedIn, GitHub and portfolio.

Everything was done online. Haven’t been to the embassy.

I am applying there now. When filling in address, there seems to be an issue. Not sure where to put my Hotel address as both entries say "Home Address". Did you encounter this?
