Just confirmed today that the Migración office in Punta Cana (located in Punta Cana Village, behind Wendy's on the 2nd floor) can now receive residency applications and renewals. You of course have to first apply online by selecting the correct office before selecting the service and once they've reviewed the documents and given you the ok, you can deposit in Punta Cana. From then on I unfortunately don't know what the procedure entails but it's a step in the right direction at least!
If anyone happens to go through this process in Punta Cana, please update this thread.
