Time frame for obtaining a temporary residency visa

Post new topic

Hola.   Can anyone give me a usual time frame for obtaining a temporary residency visa for the DR?   I have heard it takes from 3 to 6 months.  Does it usually take over three months, once you have submitted all the necessarily paperwork via your attorney and passed the medical exam?
Thanks for any thoughts you have on this subject which you may wish to share.

Yes it will take 3-6 months after you submit your paperwork to get your residency card and cedula.
Things work very slowly here and this is the norm.
