Yes, get the passport now, you'll need it for the medical exam, to pay Banco Popular and for the interview. You should get your medical exam at least 2 weeks before your interview. You can go to your interview at 5-5:30 am.

All you need to do is follow everything in here http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/Dominican_Republic:_After_Receiving_the_NOA2 and you'll be fine.

Yes get passport, you need it.

Medical do it 15 bussines days before interview.

I went to my interview at 5:45.

When go to do the medical dont listen people outside the consultorio de visas, they are buscones they dont work for consultorio de visas.

For medical you need 3 photos passport style.

The passport and the packet 4.

You can go to the medical exam from 7:00am to 11:00am and at least 14-10 days before interview, yes they can eat normally. Make sure your fiance doesn't go on a Thursday as they don't do the medical exam on kids that day.

They send the results to the consulate.

When you arrive to consultorio the visas, be carefull with the buscones. People who try to get money saying things, dont listen them.

You need passport , 3 photos , cedula, and the money.

To pay the medical exam

Porque a algun idiota le complace joderle la vida a las personas.

Porque yo nunca he tenido problemas con justicia o policia, todos los papeles de nosotros estan en orden, mi novio no vino y le presente pruebas que no podia venir, y ni siquiera la consul se quedo con el certificado medico y la carta que el envio, solo la leyo , y le devolvio.

Y me aprobo sin problema, y ahora me ponen en ap.i

Algun idiota del consulado le esta dando la gana de fastidiarnos la vida.
