Your best bet is to read the Interview Experience Reviews. Santo Domingo is very tough Consulate...just prepare your evidence, talk over things with your significant other and try your best not be nervous. If its real love and you tell the truth you should be fine.

Ignore my post above ^. I didn't read your post clearly. You are talking about the Gov't shutdown. It's definitely something to worry about. Hopefully things will get resolved.

PRESS RELEASE - http://santodomingo.usembassy.gov/pr-110408.html

Santo Domingo.- A partial shutdown of the U.S. Government, to include U.S. Embassy operations in Santo Domingo, now appears possible because of a lack of agreement in Congress on current budgetary appropriations. The partial shutdown would begin tonight, Friday, at midnight, and continue for an indefinite period. In the event of partial shutdown, the U.S. Embassy will continue to provide emergency services, including emergency consular services to U.S. citizens in need. However, routine visa issuances are not considered to be an emergency service and therefore would not be provided during the possible partial shutdown. The Puerto Plata Consular Agency would be closed during a partial shutdown.

Non-Immigrant Visas (NIV): Routine appointments would be rescheduled by the Embassy. Emergency services, narrowly defined, would be provided. Pending issuances would be completed and returned to applicants.

Immigrant Visas (IV): If there is a government shutdown, Santo Domingo’s Immigrant Visa Unit would not be able to interview any applicants. The IV Unit would reschedule any affected April appointments for the first available dates in June. The Consular Section would consider for emergency appointment any IV cases where children will age out.

thanks a lot for the info.... the shutdown won't happen
