ORIGINAL POSTER

Any Chinese citizens get DTV in Vietnam recently?  My wife (Chinese) and I (American) applied for the same Muy Thai DTV 12 hours apart. 

We each used our own bank statements and own invitations from the muy thai studio.

Mine was granted Monday and hers still says “Processing Pending Approval”

Did you both apply with your own qualifications, or was one of you supposed to be the primary and the other one the dependant?
