My name is Arlene. I will be moving to Las Terrenas this summer to be with my fianc? and have started making my "list" in preparation for the move. I am seeking any advice, tips, guidelines about the process. The three big things that are top of mind for me:
- Resident visa: Apply through the DR consulate in DC (where I presently live) or wait until after I've moved to the DR? Pros and cons to doing either?
- Pet: I have a large dog that will be coming with me. Looking for recommendations on airlines, risks, challenges, considerations.
- Financial: Banking is hot button for me. When I lived in London I maintained two accounts (one UK, one US) which was a hassle. I am hoping to avoid that this time around, but, of course, I will still have debts here in the US (student loans) that will need to be paid out of a US account. I have been debating opening an "international" account, but from what I have read so far it's as much of a hassle as maintaining two accounts. Thoughts? Considerations?
Cheers
Arlene
