ORIGINAL POSTER

DTV (workcation) just approved by RTE Canberra after a long wait.  Initial application made late April. Further info requested within a few days of that, and then ... ... ... until today. 

Patience was key thanks to advice that I read in this forum. (I was tempted to email and/or call but decided it might just waste everyone's time at best and harm my case at worst. Jai yen yen dee gwa.)

Thank You for your helpful report 👍

Congratulations 👏👏👏

PRINT OUT THE EMAIL THAT HAS YOUR DTV VISA.

That's what you should do... print it out.

You may have to show PROOF of your DTV Visa to airline staff on check-in for your flight ✈️ to Thailand...even to the connecting airline staff. Or to the land border crossing entry Thai Immigration Officer.

Upon arrival into Thailand, show the DTV visa to the Thai Immigration Officer and look at the STAMP placed in your passport to be sure you are STAMPED in for 180 days.
