Dominican Residency Visa Questions

This is not correct. Please see post number 16 in this thread. It was written by a lawyer with Guzm?n Ariza. She is the Head of the Immigration Practice Group there.

I used her for my original residency and she is competent and professional.

Not to steal the thread, but can a person on temporary residency go direct to citizenship without first going to permanent residency if they are married to a Dominican? I could have went directly to permanent residency under the current rules.

Matilda posted this link in another thread:

It lists all the requirements for the application for citizenship by a man married to a Dominicana. One of the requirements is a copy of a provisional residency with at least six months of validity remaining. So, no need for permanent residence before applying for citizenship.

On the Visa applications, question #20 is Name of person who will accompany you.

Whose name is supposed to go there? Does that person have to be present in your home country when you are submitting the visa application?

You should only fill this out if someone will be traveling with you once the visa is granted.
