Spanish Ambassador Fermin Prieto Castro says that Spain has made available 100,000 migrant visas for farmers, housekeepers, and even for computer technicians. He said that Dominicans will soon be able to benefit from the new migration program. A meeting is pending between a Spanish government commission and Dominican authorities. At present, he said the Spanish government grants 3,500 migrant visas a year to the DR. He said that an estimated 40,000 Dominicans have already migrated to Spain, of which 26,000 have done so legally. To apply for one of the visas, you only need to present a work contract from a Spanish employer.
