ORIGINAL POSTER

I've looked in the group and tried to search but have not found an answser for this question and I'm really worried about it. I'm applying for DTV with soft power (muay thai) and I have a job which I can currently do remote (temporarily). 

What do I fill in in the 'Employment details' section? I'm worried they will reject my application if I mentioned my job or at best tell me I should apply with remote worker option instead of softpower.

Please can someone who knows who's in the same situation as me tell me what they did and if they got approved?

I called my local embassy about this and they said we’re allowed to work remotely with a soft power application. They said to upload supporting employment docs. That said, every consul and embassy is different, so it’s worth contacting yours before applying.

hmm I hope they don't request additional documents then but I'm happy that's it's allowed. At least that removes some of my concern.
