Got my DTV approved in taipei through soft powers. It has been a hell, they require you to be employed and show dozens of documents (work contract, certificate of employment, company license authorized with seals, pay slips going into your account, certifications from the gym that are out of ordinary). Despite of showing them all (plus a bank account with 1M) I still got an interview (which took place 2 weeks after submitting the documents for the first time) which felt everything but relaxed with most of the questions related to my job (I applied for soft powers but it doesn't seem there's much difference here). It might be better than malaysia or japan but do yourself a favor, don't apply here. I repeat, don't apply here because they are extra picky. ps: if you think you still wanna get a shot cuz your documents are perfect plz read what I wrote above, avoid this embassy

Hello everyone,

I am self employed in Germany and have a "company registration" (Gewerbeschein). As far as i understood everything, i should be eligible to apply for a DTV. Does anyone know if it might be possible for me to hire my partner on a small income (450€ Minijob) to make her also eligible to apply for a DTV?

Thank you in advance :)
