Hey guys anyone here recently applied for softpower DTV via HCM. I made application on Sunday just past and Tuesday morning got a response for extra documents "proof of income" which I submitted same day. I had a flexible flight booked for this weekend and have now extended until Wednesday so that would be 8 working days total I'm allowing the process to be complete. Is this withing the timeframe most are being processed?

Answer summary

The user inquired about the processing time for their Softpower DTV application submitted in HCM, mentioning they had to provide additional documents and had extended their travel plans while waiting for approval. The responses suggest that processing times can vary, but 8-10 business days is considered normal, especially with additional document requests.

In your case it obviously is taking a long time, maybe even too long.

For sure I know it takes as long as it takes 😂 and can vary greatly, just be good to know as of late an estimate on time taken for the process for others applying through same route in same embassy thats all.

takes as long as it takes, no one can tell you with certainty how long your particular application approval will take

You sit it out in Vietnam until it's approved 😕

I'd say 8-10 business days is not unusual especially with the "additional document request" thrown in there
