You can only send 1 document so create PDF with both account and explanation that it’s in 2 accounts then you can send as single doc 😉

and just to be clear, I have 2 bikes, 1 car. And both my licences and guess what, I’m here on a tourist visa. Strange how YOUR facts don’t actually align with how some people live, and yes you can even buy property on a tourist visa, in fact you don’t ever need to set foot in the country to buy. But then some people don’t understand how real life works and how people don’t always live there life how others do.

I think it’s YOU that doesn’t understand the nature of the visa, is IS a glorified tourist visa, ask anyone in the know and you will be told I’m sure, and that is why you cannot get a bank account with it and yet you can with a ED visa. Haha

How many people here buy and rent out a property while they are not here as a tourist? The DTV in and of itself is just a glorified tourist visa just so you know.

I would check what is possible but you may well have to declare tax on the income.

won’t ever happen as different demographic of people entirely. The DTV is aimed at working people, the Elite is aimed at people with money that just want to sit on there backside and do nothing.

Essentially you can leave for an hour and return, so as I understand it many people just do what’s known as bouncing, literally out 5’minutes and come back. It’s easier to do with a company as you don’t have to deal with anything.

If you do the extension then it looks like submitting the paperwork all over again to get approved but every different immigration office will be slightly different. As they essentially make up their own rules based on interpretation of what they are told.

Anonymous participant I would imagine that it won’t be a major issue to reapply. You already have the paperwork the only additional would be letter explaining nationality change and old/new passports and acceptance of NEW nationality. If it got refused I’d be very surprised.
