The receipt presented corresponds only to the payment of fines and is not related to the complaint. Santo Domingo. – The National Institute of Transit and Land Transportation (INTRANT) reported that, following the complaint made by Mrs. Yahayra Elizabeth Félix Cedeño about an alleged identity theft at one of its license offices, it immediately proceeded to carry out the corresponding verification in the institutional system. The institution specified that the only thing presented by the citizen today was a receipt corresponding to the payment of traffic fines, a document that is not related to the complaint of alleged impersonation or the issuance of a learner's permit or driver's license. After the review, it was confirmed that with the indicated identity card number, no driver's license or learner's permit has been issued or delivered, so there is no impersonation. Likewise, it was found that Mrs. Yahayra Elizabeth Félix Cedeño had not initiated any prior formal process in the licensing system. Internal records show that he/she went to request the issuance of the learning card and took turns both at the headquarters and at the Blue Mall office; however, he/she did not complete the process in either of the two offices.

Similarly, it was verified that he/she had active fines in the system at the time of requesting the service. In accordance with the provisions of Law 63-17 on Mobility, Land Transportation, Transit and Road Safety of the Dominican Republic, no driver sanctioned with the payment of a fine can renew or process their driver's license, nor carry out associated procedures, until they regularize their situation. Consequently, as long as there are pending sanctions, the system prevents continuing with the requested process. The institution reiterated that no irregularities were recorded in the system and that the processes for issuing licenses and learner's permits have strict identity validation mechanisms, in accordance with the official data of the Central Electoral Board, which guarantees the security and transparency of the service.
