TLDR : Answer Summary
The user expresses concern after their DTV visa was approved as a Tourist TR visa for 6 months, feeling it was a waste of money. Comments suggest the user may have made an error in their application or chosen an unsuitable course for a long-term visa. Several users advise on the implications of applying for visas based on short courses, emphasizing the necessity of establishing consistency in the application for extended visa periods.
Possible they have realised that people won't take a cooking course for 5 years ?

This should serve as a clear warning to anyone considering applying for the DTV visa using short cooking classes or similar programs. It’s just common sense that 1 -2 months of casual classes are bound to raise red flags when a consular officer is evaluating your eligibility for a five year visa. It’s just common sense.

It’s obviously soft power. Never seen it on workcation. Digital nomad is approved or not. Never just 6 months. Why you feel like you trashed your money? Never guaranteed unless 6 months or more classes. If the Thai history class it seems they decline a lot. If you booked a one or two month course it likely to be TR. use the 6 months then reapply.

ExcellentTravel you can't get DTV visa until METV is expired.
Sometimes they are not feeling confident about your documents or not feeling comfortable about you to give you the visa even if all ok and show them fund in bank.
Sometimes they are so, not a must that there is any mistakes in the application
