Anyone applied the DTV visa in Manila using soft power option recently ?

We are planning to apply in Manila (plan to stay there for 10-14 days) at the beginning of next month, wondering if anyone could share some recent experience.

We are gonna enroll to the Discover Thai Nature seminar ( [members only] ) for the DTV visa, the seminar said they do not have experience from Manila so I am still thinking if Manila is a good option or we should apply in Hanoi, Vietnam instead

I am am American collecting Social Security. I bring in 3,100$ a month. Can I get approved for the DTV on Social Security?

For the DTV soft power does attending Thai language school qualify for this? I attended a Thai language school and had an education visa back in 2020, attended about two months then covid hit and the school closed due to restrictions. I would like to re-enroll to study, the course is 9 months, after it’s finished I wish to attend their higher advanced course. Would this qualify for Thai dtv soft power?

Anyone applied for DTV in Penang? What was your experience?

Can you submit bank statements from a joint account with your name on it or does it have to be your own separate account? Applying for DTV under soft power.

Hello all, my girlfriend who is from Indonesia is planning on applying for the DTV (using soft power for cooking classes) in Jakarta and she is not employed. I support her and pay for everything for us but am wondering if that will be a problem in getting approved if she is unemployed? I do plan on making the deposit of $15,000 into her account (and plan to be added/named on her account as well) and also wonder if we should wait three months before applying or if she could get approved with just one or two months of statements.

I applied through soft power Muay Thai , the embassy reply was:

My question did somebody apply hr contacts before ?? And will they call to confirm?

Second question proof of payment of Muay Thai course or visa?

Thanks in advance

Does wellness retreats and hair loss clinics qualify as “Medical Treatment” when applying under soft power?

If so, what process or agent provides a DTV outcome?

Hi :), does anyone know where I can find a list of activities that are considered soft power?
