nothing happens it seems to be totally up to the student. We have processed about 80 now and only 13 have turned up.... a few are in transit though.

We really want them to be students and allow the class allocation to remain on file indefinitely but if they dont come it doesn't seem to be an issue.

But I advise them all to come at least once and take photos just I'm case immigration ask when they extend

I think people are getting it mixed up with the Education visa.

I own a muay thai gym and as of yet we have not been asked to monitor or report immigration

@Henrik ****

yes its been brilliant my gym has a lot more customers from the DTV applicants and it's great to be introducing the sport so many new people. The soft power initiative is great

@Jamie *******

Embassys are changing and looking for longer courses. When we did our first one (I own a muay thai gym) 10 private lessons got approved. But now increasingly they are looking for a 6 month course to match the 180 day stamp. If you submit a short course it could get by but there is a chance they could say you don't need a dtv a tourist visa will suffice. So to be on the safe side choose a longer course.

All know embassy staff are brutal buy i wonder what the person's thought process was when they casually said " you need to go to Nigeria!"

@Kelly *******

oh did I respond? I'm still getting a ton of enquiry sorry if it slipped by

@Kelly *******

this is one of the reasons my gym pulled out of marketing the DTV. Competitors are manufacturing consent and creating false realitys.

It's becoming a real cat fight and the customer looses out.

Gutted that means you going to be back in the gym playing mad rave music again!!!!

Just kidding well done mate. Boonlai fighting on 16th will you be back?
