What should I do if my application for a DTV visa was rejected due to a cooking school in Korea?

I tried to get a DTV from a cooking school in Korea, but I was rejected. In this case, it would be meaningless to supplement the documents and put them back in Korea, right?

Recheck step by step on your application before you re-apply please indicate and fix it. Otherwise your visa will get rejected again

How long was your money in your personal bank account? That's a big reason lots of people get rejected.

Need more information, how long was the course, and how successful has the cooking school been in getting DTV approvals, and at which embassies?

Is the cooking school in Thailand or Korea? Sorry the post is a little confusing. Was the course at least 6 months? Was the application itself rejected ( often due to a mistake in the form) or the visa denied ( often due to not meeting the requirements)??

It must be a cooking school in Thailand, not Korea.

I would apply in a different country that's been known to approve cooking schools. Use the search button for people with experiences in vietnam

Anonymous participant Did you book a 6 month course ? Without knowing the reason for rejection, it may be better to apply elsewhere.
