Were you asked to submit any documents? If you did that resets the approval time back to zero. Some embassies do take 15-20 business days to approve

Pointern535 You will find posts in the threads from Vietnam/Hanoi. Doubt they insist on a hospital.

Pointern535 Did you check the threads? You can probably find posts there from medical applicants. Doubt they insist on a hospital.

Pointern535 It depends on the embassy how they approve. Many do accept clinics for approval but there will be a few like in Norway that don't.

Some embassies require the business registration of the company you work for. I had to give it applying as freelancer.It is the legal registration of your company, your HR Dept should know. You can even probably look it up online

The one month membership approval was easy to get last year. Now 6mths minimum plus demonstrate your long term need for the DTV to avoid rejection or given a 6 month METV.

Can take 10-15 business days. There are delays in Vietnam as this forum shows, it's the most popular embassy currently.

Pointern535 ok, so you need to provide a 6 month plus dental treatment plan, dentist registration Info etc

There are some dental clinics that offer DTV packages, Vietnam is stricter these days on SP approvals.

My PT online income was a bit less than that. I also emailed them telling the income and they said it was fine to apply as did London, Vietnam, Manilla, no minimum income etc. When I applied, I got the miserable lady others complained about. She kept saying " not enough money" even though I showed her the email. She was fine with adding investment income.
