Approved through US Consulate.

Applied Feb 18th. Requested additional documents March 3rd, Approved March 5th.

I applied online through the evisa site on the 18th through Workcation catagory.

I am self employed but did not have the funds required for the visa application so I had my dad sponsor me with his savings account.

Was initially worried about that being under workcation catagory but after I applied they just needed an employement verification letter signed (by myself) and they approved it.

I submitted:

Letter of Intent, Employment Contract, Proof of Work (Link to my site and invoices), Sponsorship Letter, Bank Statements (I used 6 months), Copy of My Dads Passport for ID verification, and Employment Verification Letter. I had already purhcased my flight and made a hotel reservation for my travels (March 31st is my flight out)

I wanted to say thank you to this group as I combed over tons of posts before submitting my application. I have never been anywhere outside of the US and Mexico (right across the border) but this has been a dream for going on 10 years now so I am so hyped to make it happen.

I used ChatGPT throughout my process to help me draft letters and follow the requirements with the DTV. I had ChatGPT make editable templates of all the letters I submitted if that would be helpful I put them here in a shareable folder (just make your own copy of them as needed).

I am considering the DTV for Workcation - I am not a freelancer but have several virtual jobs that I can provide documentation for income and employment. How do I have my employment contract or employment certificate authenticated by a US embassy for the DTV application?

Pretty straight forward, applied for workcation as a Director of company(registered with investment commission)

Just ask me what I'll be doing which my answer was managing my company from here and probably travel around thailand. Paid the fees and got back in two days.

- company annual tax return (notarized)

- company letter detailing my work addressed to Ambassador with stamp and seal

- bank statement 4 months (loads of transaction)

- Company Registration

- Company List of Shareholders

- passport copies

If you are a director/BOD of registered company, you don't need that much of documents apart from having a strong bank statement. Good luck 🙌
