be aware that if you pay your overstay at the border/airport to save the paperwork
else immigration does not accept that you payed already .. even with stamps in your passport, they will charge and fine you as much as possible
so i told them to sit on my middle finger and grow a beard

i wait till the situation changes before i try again
oh and this .. if during the process you get a new passport from your government save the old one .. alse they will ask you to find it and/or get extremely insecure-nerveaus and irritated

Got that request also but since our government does not allow us anymore to hold on to the old one - at least not when applied for a new one abroad - we had to come up with other evidence for how long we were in the country.
Luckly I had all the papers of our first flights to the DR still, so I send a copy of those to our lawyer.
