He went to:

 

 Avenida Independencia 254 
Corner with Danae Street, sector de Gazcue Sector Bella Vista
Santo Domingo
Telephone: 809-685-1587

 

 

Funny thing is we had him schedule VAC appmnt today to, but he missed it. We didnt think the medical would literally take all day!

 

We rescheduled VAC for this Thursday. They mentioned to him at clinic that VAC is a very quick process.

Well, best of luck with everything. So other question. About the new insurance requirement within 30 days required after Nov. 3rd. Not assuming you don't have coverage to give him. But I'm just as confused as everyone else. I really don't wanna pay a year of travel insurance if I can just get my wife 30 day travel insurance and then once she gets her ssn, get something from marketplace. That part is stressing me out just a bit.

I figured out that part to. 

 

But yes It can be a bit confusing at first...

 

So trumps new law does NOT indicate she needs one ASAP. If all goes well for her and she gets approved, she will have max of 30days once here to get some type of health insurance. 

***At her interview, you need only present evidence that you are looking into an insurance plan. I am taking a business card of place we will enroll him in. But even print outs can work I believe

 

My plan for us is to have him as a dependent under my insurance, but open enrollment does not occur until June-July 2020. So, in the meantime, I am getting hime temporary PPO health plan, with the bare minimum, to cover him month to month until I can enroll him in mine. 

 

 

Hope this helps!!

Yeah, it's just been stressing me out since where I work I can't add anyone to insurance (part time) plus I'm on medicaid right now (legally blind). But luckily I have an aunt who's a doctor in SD so she got me a hookup with her friend who's in charge of insurance stuff for humano for travel plans. So I'll probably just do a trimester plan from them or semester. Depends cause ou a visa open enrollment for marketplace will be well passed before she's even here. I've also heard they've blocked it for now, so it might not even be a question at the interview. I was originally thinking how's this possible to get insurance before even issuing you a visa. Most major companies you can't without a SSN first.

yes, exactly, its soo confusing. My hope is it has been paused but if not at least we are prepared. You would also be on the right track. just be sure she explains that at her interview if she is asked

 

I had a question and I was hoping to get your input:

 

When it comes to the  birth certificate and marriage documents that were submitted through CEAC, do we need to get those renewed (meaning re-request them) ? I know that the police certificate yes, since it has to be current (within 3 months or so). But i didnt think those 2 other documents need to...

No as long you have his BC and MC  both acta inextensa. Which can be in Spanish I believe at the interview? Idk you'd know that lol. But yeah PC . Also, the BC and MC, you need original and a copy right? Luckily I'm going to DR next week for mini vacation so I can get some stuff done beforehand. I need to grab more photos with the wife cause literally all of my photos from out 5+ years together were on my old galaxy s6 and back in 2017 it got fried due to the electricity in DR and lost all our photos as evidence. Earliest I have is from 2016 🙄

perfect! thats what I thought. Yes, they can be either in spanish or english

 

okay yes that would be good for you to do. Also---if you have airplane tickets that can show# of times you've gone over to see her, that will help! i myself dont have many pictures but we gave them our social media accounts on form DS260 and those are loaded with pics and anniversary stuff

Yeah, her Facebook was hacked a year or so ago and pretty much deleted. Just our luck lol. But I've heard the agents don't like to be overloaded with too much stuff. So I'm not too worried.

ohh, ouch. 

 

But yes you make a good point. There have been some who say they dont even end up seeing that evidence...but I think we all feel a bit more secure taking a bit just in case

[Davidh9054 5]

Does anyone know if I call the embassy in DR will it help a at all at finding out when we will get an interview?

[Flor894 3]

@Davidh9054 not sure...I have not heard of someone who has done so
