I wouldn’t be surprised if and when the DTV is reassessed that they get rid of the must Thai and cooking. Even most medical can be done on 30 day exemption same with dental and cooking is not worthy of a visa IMO
often it wont say place of issue it will say issuing authority this is not what you add. then the only area listed on the bio page will be probably your country name at the top. Thats what mine had so i put my own country and it was accepted
You know there are a hundred questions on this that get answered.
Simple answer your permanent address is your homeland in usa and the next question is about your current address well that is the hotel you are currently staying at to apply for the visa m. It’s what I put and was accepted for me and by many here .
