Maybe the "just got married" is the key here. Looks like you need to have been married for 2 years.

Under the new immigration law, foreign spouses of Indonesians can apply for an ITAP (five year residency permit), after having been legally married for two years. Some immigration officers still hesitant to enact provisions which they don't have implementation instructions for. This will change as the new law becomes more "socialized". It is recommended that you take a printed copy of the new immigration law with you when you go to apply (especially Pasal 60 and Pasal 141). Insisting that the provisions of the new law are followed will help you process your applications!

This comes from Mixed Marriages - Legal concerns for Indonesians and expatriates who marry
