Regarding Guillermos successful and quick visa approval, I also went with self business owner, and I've been tracking in Excel those reporting approvals/denials and what they went with. From my crude data keeping, having your own business takes your chances of a fast approval WAY up above the other options. That's what I went with in Chicago and got a 3 day approval.

Has anyone received their approved dtv visa in cambodia? I am on 12th business days since my application was “pending approval” since 20th may and my flight leaves tomorrow.

Update on May 30: Still Processing, Pending Approval. Reminder-June 3 is a holdiay, so offices will be closed.

HCMC: Applied DTV soft power on Monday, status was Pending Document check until this afternoon and is now Processing, Pending Approval. My question is what is the likelihood of being asked for additional documents at this point? I’m trying to get a sense of how long the approval process will take. Thank you.

Approved today at Ho Chi Minh

Visa approved 😃

So I’ve just finished the interview at the Thai embassy in the Netherlands. I applied for the dtv muy Thai for 6 months. From October to April I had an ED visa

Documents I’ve sent them

-bank statement for over 6 months

-proof of ownership of my house

-a letter from the Dutch tax department

-energy bill

-phone bill

They then asked me to provide all my passport pages so I sent them

So today the interview. I’ve printed all these documents but he told me he did not need them.

He asked me what kind of work I do. I told him I don’t work and I’m living from my savings. The money comes from an inheritance So he asked from who the money came.

He asked me where the gym was that I will do the course. How many hours I will train en how many days. He also asked me me what I’m doing in the time I’m not training so I told him that I’m learning kitesurfing, following private Thai class and that I like to spend time with my friends. I told him I’ve been coming to thailand for 10 years for holiday.

And then he said yes I saw your were studying Thai how is your Thai. So I told him nit noi:p that I know some words but I find it difficult to put them in a correct sentence.

So he asked me how many hours I had Thai class. Told him the days and times

He then made the comment that I really like thailand so I told him yes 🙂 and he said that they do many of these interviews to decide if the course matches up with this visa because it is a long term visa he said

I will get an awnser in the coming days so I willl update this post then. Fingers crossed 🤞

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.)

Appreciation post.

I’m happy to share that my DTV has been officially approved! 🙌

This wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible support, guidance, and contributions from all of you in this amazing group.

Thank you to each and every one who took the time to help, share insights, answer questions, or simply encourage me along the way. Your collective wisdom and generosity truly made a difference.

Feeling grateful to be part of such a supportive community. Onwards and upwards! 🚀💪

6 months in for CR-1 visa.

Anyone have any positive comments about getting approval for CR-1 visa Thiland wife coming to America.

Got my LTR-P visa today. FWIW, it took six weeks for the BOI cert plus another two weeks for the e-visa approval (about 8 weeks total). For unknown reason (different screen / agent), my wife's dependent LTR approval was much faster, three weeks for BOI.

Question: I believe I need to print the e-visa for immigration, but should it be in color? (chatGPT says color is best)
