Hi everyone - hoping to get some advice from anyone who’s been through the DTV application recently 🙏

I’ve submitted my application via the London embassy and have been asked for additional supporting documents. One issue I’m running into is that the visa portal only seems to allow a single file upload per section.

For example, I need to submit multiple invoices and supporting income documents, but I can only upload one file at a time. I’m also wondering how others have managed this?

Also slightly related - I’ve been told to remain in the UK while my application is being processed, but I already have travel booked for early May. I’d really appreciate hearing how others have handled timing/travel during the application process as well.

Any experiences or advice would be massively appreciated - thanks in advance!

My dependent has applied via London embassy and we filled in the arrival date to be April 1st. He just got a request for further docs “Other request documents: - Rescheduled Flight Booking on future date if possible show your name, departure date, all flights en route from UK/Ireland/UK territories to Thailand. Recommend to plan at least 4-5 weeks in advance and booking can be refundable.”.

Wondered if this is because they don’t think it’s possible to be approved in less than 20 days now so a reschedule a nescessary? Any advice 🙏

For the UK embassy, can I just transfer 15k into my current account and apply in a few weeks and have likely success for the DTV?

I am british but currently living in Cyprus, I wanted to apply for my DTV through the UK embassy in London but when I have started to complete my application it only gives me the option of applying through the Embassy in Rome. Has anyone here every applied through this particular embassy and if you did were you successful?

Hi everyone,

I understand patience is a virtue and I’m being quite irrational here, due to Christmas close down - but it’s bloody cold in the UK..

I applied for the workation DTV to the London embassy 8:00am on the 24th Dec (I imagine this would be skeleton staff and not counted as a day) would I be correct in thinking that Dec 29th, 30th and Jan 2nd could count towards a possible 14 day process or should I tell myself that it all starts from tomorrow (5th January)

I am departing to Thailand in March, so I also understand this might push me to the back of the queue.

Many thanks!
