DTV was denied, I'm so sad. In the US, it takes 14 days and $400. They said I spelled my name wrong and didn't match my documents. My middle name has a "-" in it, and it was not included on the passport page. I let their automated passport reader fill out the text fields. I should have double-checked. Any way I have to be out of my house in the US by August 1st. So I was thinking of just flying to Hanoi and getting it there. I also have a wife and 3 kids I have to account for. My main question is, do you think the Thai government might think this is suspicious?
