Working with an attorney, I invested a fair amount of time and money in obtaining a Permiso Temporal de Trabajo, which I was told was the same as temporary provisional residencia. It expired on June 14, 2020, and due to the state of emergency in the country, I was unable to go to Puerto Plata or the Capital to address the expiration. What's next?

Permiso Temporal de Trabajo
She is extremely health-compromised and the second there was a whisper about COVID, her family isolated her to the top of some remote mountain, I think. It's worth a shot to see if anybody can get a message to her.
Apologies, I did not see that this was submitted to the Legal Forum, which has particular rules. The proper voice within should be able to assist you.
The process to renew your temporary residency is similar to a regular one. Your application must be submitted by the Immigration system and wait for the appointment to receive the card (this takes around 20 working days). You will not be able to renew by simply visiting the office. General documents required include: front picture, criminal record, immigration policy and work letter (because you have a labor residency permit). Please have in mind that they will charge you a monthly penalty of US$10.00 for each month that passes without renewing (after July 14th).
