Hey VJ DR crew! :star:

So as most of you may know 3 DR members here on VJ got their interviews assigned today (CR-1). We are all within days of one another. I get to be the guinea pig and be first. :rofl:

So I just received packet 4 interview letter by email, but it doesn't seem specific to the DR consulate so let's get a checklist for the interview going to help eachother out. It doesn't say anything about the banco popular receipt or anything like that. So will my husband ever get a DR specific interview letter to his home or adress? :blink:

So here is what I plan to bring, am I missing anything?

1. Beneficiary passport

2. Medical results if not sent directly by consultorios de visa

3. 2x2 passport pics (HOW MANY?)

4. Most recent tax returns for main sponsor and any joint sponsor/s

5. Visa interview appointment letter (Does he need to get one at his home address or can we just print out the one from the email? )

6. Banco popular receipt

7. Copies of I-130, AOS, DS-230 packets

8. Original/Certified MC and petitioner BC (optional, just to be safe)

9. Police Certificate issued within 30 days of interview

10. Excessive Evidence of relationship

First off, congrats on your cita yay!!!!!!!!!!!!! :dance:

He should get an informational packet but then again its DR and that's always up in the air :wacko:

But the email that was sent to you for the cita is sufficient just print it out, you can also fax it to him for his medical or he can print it in DR from your email

On the SDO embassy website it talks about the $15 receipt from Banco Popular

He will need (3) 2x2 passport photos for medical exam and (1) 2x2 passport photo for the cita

Dont forget his cedula for both the interview and medical exam

Check out these links:

Cita Info

Medical Exam Info

Other than that I think you are all set, anyone please add anything I have missed. Hope this helps.

Check out my "About Me" tab on my profile to learn about my detailed timeline with the K-1 Visa and AOS process....

Live life, Laugh lots, Love forever.....
