Hi everyone. I applied for my DTV visa as a freelancer and it just got approved but under remarks it says employment prohibited.

Anyone have a similar situation ?

Hey Everyone!

My wife and I are both freelance online teachers and are considering applying for the DTV Visa in the Workcation category. However, we can’t find accurate information regarding applying separately for the Workcation visa vs having one of us apply for that type and the other apply for the spousal visa.

Does anyone know if you are legally allowed to work (online, not in Thailand) if approved for the spousal visa? I searched the group first, but haven’t seen anything.

Thank you. 🙏

I don't make much from freelancing and I have two freelancing jobs. One is designing (which allows me to provide an online portfolio) and one is tutoring (which is where my limited income comes from, and my invoices relate to).

Will it likely complicate things too much if I present myself as having both of these freelancing jobs?

It's the only real way I can show income and also a portfolio

Submitted these

Cover letter explaining my business, savings and payments from customers

6 months of checking and savings account statements.

5 payment links from Stripe.

Screenshots of my profiles on sites where I freelance.

Work contract of a company I work part time for

Photo of my Indonesia tourist visa

Screenshot of my hotel booking.

Wasn't asked for any additional docs.

I had done a 12 month education visa in Thailand in 2023, so I thought they might ask to see my passport pages. They never asked in the end.

I found an awesome site for pdfs. Much faster than some other more popular sites

Good luck to everyone 🍀

I recently exited my full-time software developer job and planning to freelance now in the same field. I have good bank balance but what documents I can show as a freelancer?

Hi everyone!

I’m a software engineer working as a freelance and I am planning to apply for the DTV workcation visa.

I have 6 months of statements for my freelance account and proof of savings accounts overs 160k CAD (110k USD).

Is that sufficient for the visa application (to prove freelance activity AND financial situation) or is there anything else to improve my luck in the selection process ?

Has anyone applied for DTV as a Freelancer? I know about the portfolio and invoices that need to be shown. I have also seen some forums talking about tax returns as well and want to know if proof of taxes is required.
