it’s a group of mates and they were coming for a long stint but their plans changed so they decided to just enter on visa exempt, stayed 3 weeks and left and then 2 months later arrived and used their DTV’s. Why? I’m not sure but just letting you know it was fine to do so 🤷♂️
Absolutely yes you can. Don’t use the visa first time round. Leave the country like you said and then enter again using your DTV. This is of course on the grounds that it gets issued
yes I get that and usually that is the case when I’ve stayed in hotels or long term condo rentals however this time I am staying with a friend. My stay is 62 days so will need to extend as I don’t want 2 days overstay in my passport so by the sounds of it I may have to try and sort the TM30 🤷♂️
