Renew NM1

When you get your residencia then you go get your cedula! Please let us kniw if this actually happens in 45 wirking days. I have never heard of it working.

I believe your employer needs to start the renewal of the work visa, but you may not need it. Once you have residencia and your cedula you dont need a work visa.

well... good news, about 55 working days after submit the request of the temporary resident card to the DGM (direction general migracion) the web site will be updated and you will requested to go to Santo Domingo to collect your card.
yippie!
once there (go in the early morning about 8.00) take a number, give the paper u save from the last time with invoice and wait, they will call u for a picture and then wait again for them to print the card.
If everything is going to be fine you will be out before 11.30.
the card is going to expire 1 year after issuing date.

To request a new visa (working visa) the information I got it's you need your temporary residence card, working contract and penal certificate from police station where you're living (in DR of course).
With this documents you will (probably) have a new working visa.

I hope this information will help..
