For those who have interviews coming up and have been wondering how long it takes to get the visa, it took exactly a week for us to get the visa in hand from the Santiago Domex office.

A fellow VJer suggested that it's better to pick it up in Santo Domingo if you can because it is faster. They will wait until they have a decent amount if packets before making the trip from Santo Domingo to Santiago. When you go to pay Domex, they will tell you that it's the same amount of time whether you send it to Santiago or Santo Domingo. Don't believe them like we did! :)
