The fact that you 'DEMAND' in a country where 'Demands' are frowned upon is cause enough to give you hassle. My message was to tone the demands down quite a bit & work WITH the employers. Honestly ....... DEMANDING will just get you heavy resistence & ultimate rejection.

Have you checked THAT with a lawyer?? You may have been told that by someone, you may FEEL as though you should have that right ......... But do you IN LAW?? It was not MY understanding that illegal residents of this country had the same rights as Dominicans. PLEASE check this with a lawyer as I would hate for you to go down a costly legal route only to find that you do not have a leg to stand on. OR, go check it with the Secretary de Trabajo near you & get THEIR interpretation of the law relating to non legal workers. I know you are NOT a Haitian but I know for a fact that those here working without the correct papers (Residency or permission to work papers) are forcefully ejected back to Haiti!
Be careful to check what you THINK are your rights against what are LRGALLY your rights. What some people tell you may just be their interpretation of the law & not hold any weight in a court of law. It would be a shame if your 'DEMANDING' brought the authorities to the conclusion you were here illegally & then had you deported!! ~ Grahame.
