Hey DTV experts, I am 40 years old Indian male. Working in Bangkok in a tech job for past 6 years on Non-B visa. My crypto and stock investments did well in past few years. With that, and sufficient savings I am thinking to get retired in next few months.
So, my question is whether I can show my investment returns as regular income for DTV? I am also considering Elite visa but to me it appears complete waste of money.
Would appreciate any insights or advice from those who have navigated similar situations. TIA!
