Anonymous participant thanks for the info, would you be happy to provide a link to the agency's could have a look? As I say, I'm a couple of years away but it helps to be prepared, I just about to drop down to 4 days and take my FS60 pension as the years seem to have snuck up on me. 😂

I'm hoping the DTV lasts long enough for 3abd my wife to take advantage of it.

I hope you enjoy a happy retirement in Thailand. 👍👍

Could I be cheeky and ask which teaching agency you work for? Are they/you UK based? What qualifications were asked for when you joined and how much work are you getting?

I'm a UK primary teacher of 30 years and plan on going the DTV route when I retire in a couple of years to top up the teachers pension, just trying to work out if I need a TEFL in addition to my teaching degree.

Thanks in advance. 👍

@Stephen *******

was application in the UK reasonably straight forward? This visa is an option for me and my wife in a couple of years (if its still going) as online teachers.

Thanks guys, that's exact what I wanted to hear, hopefully the system stays the same for a couple of years until we get there. 👍👍

@Marks ********

amen to that........ 😂

Nog gonna lie OP, that looks like a win, win to me! 👍👍
