Successful DTV last week - family of 5

DTV type: digital nomad

Location of application: Taipei

Sunday 16 March

* evening arrive with my wife and kids in Taiwan

* already had online info entered in, submitted my DTV application

Monday 17 March

* 9:30am reply from Thai office. They want some sort of official entry/exit certification. I research this and read that you're supposed to be a Taiwan resident in order to get it. Panic begins to set it.

* 11:00am I think all hope is lost, but decide to go to the Taiwan Immigration Agency and just see what happens.

* 2pm after a long queue, I successfully obtain the required certification doc. I'm in shock but happy. I upload it and resubmit my DTV application.

* 7:30pm DTV approved. I add this to dependent applications and turn them all in.

Tuesday 18 March

* First thing in the morning: I bring my wife and kids to the Taiwan Immigration Agency and get their certificates.

* Mid-Morning: As expected, Thailand replies wanting these certificates. I upload them immediately and resubmit all dependent applications.

Wednesday 19 March

* 6pm DTVs approved for dependents.

Thursday morning we flew to Thailand.
