Duplicate of What should I do to leave Chile when I've overstayed my visa?
Apr 11, 2019 at 20:37 comment added Traveller I’ve never been to Chile but I have extended my tourist visa in other Latin American countries. According to the Extranjería site I linked to above, the visa extension fee is equal to US$100. I’d be dubious about it being paid in two parts, or that it takes more than a few days, unless I’d been told that personally by an Immigration official. Also, she should have applied for, and received, the extension before her initial entry permission expired. If that’s not happened, she may well be liable to pay the fine before she is given permission to leave.
Apr 11, 2019 at 20:23 comment added Saf Thank you for getting back to me, she has been told it's in progress but nothing more than that. Her boyfriend, born in Chile, has been arranging everything but personally I wouldn't trust him as far I could throw him (in the nicest way possible). He explained she had to pay half the fee up front then the rest when it arrives but she isn't being told anything more than it's in progress. I'm assuming there she is able to contact immigration/consulate without being penalised if what she has been informed so far is incorrect... Please forgive my ignorance!

Apr 11, 2019 at 19:59 comment added Traveller Has your sister contacted Immigration to follow up on her ‘temporary visa’ application? Waiting nearly 6 months for a reply doesn’t seem credible. From this website extranjeria.gob.cl/ingles/prorroga_turismo.html it seems a tourist visa can be extended for 90 days, which is now well past. From extranjeria.gob.cl/ingles/sanciones.html fines are payable for overstaying extranjeria.gob.cl/ingles/filesapp/…
