Does anyone know roughly how long it is taking to get a Non-O retirement visa from the UK?

I applied for my DTV visa on March 10 and submitted additional documents on March 11.

Now I’ve been scheduled for an interview on March 30.

Is this normal?What should I do? Why did it take so long

Has anyone recently applied and received approval in Hanoi? What's the approximate timeline? Thank you.

Some body here apply DTV visa at Chicago and how many days got approved ?

Can anyone share how long did it take to get DTV visa as workation (freelancer) in HCMC? It takes quite longer than I thought...

Applied on August 11th at 2:00am

Turned out to be pending approval on August 13th

Still so far nothing has changed.

I already know that August 11th and 12th were Thai national holidays and they don't work on weekends, but still almost 7 business days have been passed while on HCMC official consulate website says general processing time is 4~6 days. Trying to be patient but the fact that I even needed to cancel my flight ticket that supposed to leave two days ago just makes me frustrated..

I applied for DTV-workcation option on august 8th to the HCMC embassy. They requested for additional documents on 13th and I submitted on the same day. The status change to pending approval on 14th and it is unchange till to this day. Is there anyone who got the approval within this time frame?

Just had my DTV visa approved, applied last week, they got back to me within 24 hours requesting more information, I had to wait for my latest bank statement which was available yesterday and woke up to approval in my inbox this morning. This was London embassy so all in all their side took less than 48 hours to process and receive. The bad news is don't fly for another month lol.

I have a suggestion for an admin or all star contributors. Could someone make a spreadsheet that could be up in the documents (maybe a pinned post) of the current average processing times of the various cities people apply for the DTV. Not only extremely helpful - it would cover a large percentage of the questions asked :)

Anyone in laos doing their dtv? What’s the process there? I’m hearing online only but then people going in for meetings also.

Help a bro out!

Hi! Does anyone know if it is possible to apply for the DTV in Paris while being of a different nationality and on a tourist visa? And what is the processing time?
