hey...
I'm one of the many people who have an unjustified "impedimento de salida" in the Dominican Republic. The past two times that I've visited DR I've managed to board the plane--the first time they made me run around immigration and i nearly missed my flight, and the last time was there was more running only it was accompanied by my mother's anger and frustration from the utter nonsense that they had managed to put us through again.
My name might as well be Jane Smith since its so common, and I don't have a middle name to distiguish me from the person that they're really looking for. I don't completely understand why or what exactly is going on, and why there isn't a better system of tracking the people they're really looking for, but its ridiculous, unnecessary and discourages me from visiting the country altogether.
However, I'm flying to DR next Tuesday and I'm dreading my returning flight b/c issues at immigration are inevitable, unless the real culprit has cleared her own name, thus clearing mine as well. However, in case that has not happened yet, I was curious to know if there was anyway I can get these people off my case so that I can ensure that my travels are completely stress-free...?..
Any advice will help...but hopefully it'll be a little more legit than slippin' a $20 bill.
Thanks
