Hi, everyone! Here's my story: since we heard so many horror stories about the time frame to get a fiance visa, we decided to forgo that fiance visa (which was already in transit) and got married January 2008... the same week we received the APPOINTMENT for the fiance visa :wacko:

Anyway, we're already married, so no can do. I filed the I130 earlier this month. I'm hoping that they'll take notice that we already waited 16 months (that's how long they took to process the fiance visa) and they'll speed up the process of getting us a spouse visa without having to wait YEARS!

Anyway, my question is: has one of you out there been in my same situation? Can you maybe tell me what the estimated amount of wait time is for a spouse visa in the Dominican Republic? I've read many estimates, but it seems that it takes longer in the DR than in other countries.

Í will appreciate any input :whistle:

Since you didn't follow through your K1 visa and sent a new application for a spousal visa you have to start all over again. I find it hard to believe that they will let you jump ahead of the line just because you already waited for a K1 visa. New petition, new process.
