Usually we don't have thread specific to K-1 visa from Dominican Republic. We do have a thread according to month. For example, if you file in Feb 2018, there is a thread for K-1 Feb 2018 filers

My fiancee is also in DR, I filed in September it has been a long and stressful wait. I have read things moved quickly after the NOA2.

Wow, I am sure it has been a long and stressful wait.  Thanks for replying.  Is this the normal length of time to wait for the NOA2?

I have been following the September filers thread and there are some tech savvy people there. From my understanding they are currently working on Sept 5th and 6th.  So hopefully good things are around the corner.

Also the visa journey estimates are very accurate so continue to update you profile as you get the information.  Once you receive your noa1 it will give you an estimated date and that date will move forward or back depending on approvals. Mine says March 25th
