Hello, finally approved after 3 months!!!

Applied for evisa through New York consulate on 12/5.

On 12/12, they requested further documentation of letter of employment which I wrote for myself as I am self-employed.

On 1/9, asked for further financial documentation as my bank account was a joint (2 names) account and the wanted to see $16,000/person or $36,000 join account (USD). Submitted my investment account with stock holdings.

I emailed in February to check on my application, they responded with “your visa in on the list, please wait for approval ASAP”

On 2/21 it was approved.

Hello all....

I'll be applying for the DTV from Vietnam next week and have a few questions about the process.

I have worked abroad for a long time and have moved around an awful lot so I haven't been liable to pay tax anywhere. I have read that many folks are being asked to provide tax returns.

Has anyone successfully applied for and been granted the DTV without being asked for evidence of paying tax? I, of course have the funds in the bank and have done so for at least six months.

I am an English tutor that works online and is self-employed.

Would it be better for me to mention up-front on my cover letter that I am unable to provide evidence of tax returns or wait for them to ask?

I'd appreciate any info.

Thank you!

What can I use for this? I am a the sole director of my own UK company. I work online, but don’t have a portfolio or a contract or employment certificate.

Need urgent help for my DTV application please. My flight is next week and I just received a request for additional documents for my DTV (Destination Thailand Visa). The request:

1. Other request documents: Upload recent pay slip from the company that must show your full name and company's name.

*- I don't receive a payslip. I receive a direct wire transfer/direct deposit into my checking account. Can I provide a statement showing this?*

2. Other request documents: Upload an employment verification letter from an employer or self-employer that include the full name, position, *digital nomad/ remote worker, period of employment and signed by the authorized i.e. HR department or manager (Issue within 6 months)

*- I'm not an employee therefore I don't have an employment verification letter. I have a couple of contracts with my clients.*

3. Other request documents: Upload financial evidence or recent bank statement only that include date of issue, your full name: amount of more than THB 500,000 or USD 16,000.

*- I had previously uploaded my bank statement showing this. Why are they asking for this again? I provided bank statement along with my investment account statement as an add-on.*

I previously provided all the documents, but I am being requested again for this. Given the timeline of my flight, I want to make sure I am providing the correct documents.

Can anyone please provide guidance on what docs I should be providing in my case? Thank you very much!

So who do I Get this INFO From to qualify!? My employer?

After the update on the London E visa application site, I've seen a report that the Embassy and consulates are specifically asking for the letter from your employer to be addressed to the embassy or consulate when applying for the METV. Somebody reported a successful E visa application but it was noted the letter wasn't specifically addressed to London

I found that the Liverpool consulate has updated it's requirement to reflect

5. A letter from the applicant’s employer (in the UK) and addressed to the Royal Thai Consulate) stating length of service and expected return to work. If you are self-employed your self-assessment form.
