Hi,
I will be moving to the DR sometime late this year or early 03. I've managed to track down most of the information I am interested in, but a few items remain. If someone could help me fill in some of these holes I would appreciate it.
1. I will be maintaining a moderate amount of money in a local DR bank. Does anyone have recomendations on which ones are good (or bad)?
2. I haven't found a good location for information on DR taxes. Could someone point me to a reasonable source?
3. Does anyone know how the US IRS treats investment income from investments in the DR?
4. What is the situation for internet access in the DR?
5. I know that the DR has some pretty high import duties on various items. Does this include books? Can books be ordered from Amazon etc?
6. What sort of Sat TV service is available. I know about DirecTV Latin America, but are there others?
Thanks
Mike
