I have been a construction and safety manager for many years in the Oil and Gas industry. My wife is a realtor. I am looking for work in Sosua area so that I can move faster. Is work for expats easy to find in Sosua? Any help is greatly appreciated

Hi - and welcome to the forum!

You will need to have either a work visa (very difficult to obtain) or residency to work here legally. If you read through the pinned posts on residency, you'll see info on the different methods of qualification for residency.

Another thing to note is that the pay here is low if you do find a job. The average salary is around $400 US per month.
