What to do if your DTV Workation visa application is pending while applying for a DTV Spouse visa?

Question

Hi everyone

does anyone here have experience with the DTV workation visa application?

Specifically in a case where the main applicant applied for a DTV (Workation) and the DTV Spouse visa was submitted at the same time, but the main visa has not been approved yet. Immigration is now already asking for the approved main visa for the spouse application.

Do you know how long they usually wait in such cases, or do they simply cancel/delete the spouse application if the main visa is not approved yet?

Also, does anyone have experience applying for the DTV visa through the consulate in Frankfurt?

Thanks a lot in advance! 🙏

The discussion revolves around the DTV Workation visa application process, particularly the implications of applying for a DTV Spouse visa while the main DTV application is still pending. Community members highlight a common requirement that the primary DTV visa must be approved before a spouse can apply. The typical wait time for visa approval varies, often taking around 15-25 business days, but it can differ by consulate. If the main applicant's DTV visa is not approved, there are concerns that the spouse application may be delayed or canceled.

One can't apply for the DTV spouse option until the primary DTV applicant has received their visa as it needs to be quoted in the spouse application

Suppose to wait until the main applicant has the visa.  Others said they will wait two weeks for documents before rejecting, but that isn’t a formal notice.  I would just inform them that the main applicant is currently applying too

I waited roughly 25 business days for approval in total in Frankfurt. They asked for more documents twice and are very thorough on the financial details. Then I handed in applications for dependents two days later. They have been on „pending approval“ status for ten business days now

Immigration?

If you apply for two people on the same time, you upload a screen shot of the main application, be aware that a reference number/application number is visible on that screen shot

There are a few recent posts from Frankfurt,  15  business days for approval but can take longer. You should contact the embassy regarding your spouse DTV awaiting approval of your own.

Yes, you're supposed to wait for the first DTV to be approved before applying for any dependant. Waiting time is probably embassy specific.
