Hi everyone,

I’m currently applying for the DTV visa online in Indonesia and was hoping to get some advice or insight from anyone who’s recently been through the process.

I submitted my online application on the 20th of May, but as of today (the 29th), I still haven’t received any update or had my initial document check completed. Is it normal for this part of the process to take over a week? Just trying to get a sense of the current timelines.

I’m also unsure about my current accommodation—I'm due to check out on the 31st, but not sure whether I should extend my stay here or if it's okay to move to a new place in Bali while the application is being processed. Does changing accommodation affect the application in any way, or as long as I stay in Indonesia, should it be fine?

Any advice or shared experiences from those who have applied online in Jakarta recently would be hugely appreciated—thanks in advance!
