The most he was inside there was 10 minutes. They took his packet, and opened it, took his passport and stamped it and said welcome to the United States :) |

Consulate Review: Dominican Republic
Review Topic: K1 Visa

| Review Date : |

| Embassy Review : |
My interview in DR was on December 17, the consular officer asked me most of the questions, but we answered everything correctly when asked at the same time, I took all the proof, a 4 inch binder full of pictures, receipts, money transfers, my passport copies, over 200 pictures, all my flight itineraries since we met, any single document to prove our relationship was legitimate was in that binder. The problem was that the consular officer said that she wanted to approve us because she believed our relationship was real but that because of my fiance's previous marriage to a USC and the petition she had previously submitted for him was revoked due to lack of proof on behalf of the petitioner, she said that he had to submit the 601 waiver. We paid the fee at DOMEX for his passport delivery yet they didn't keep his passport. She said that once I got to the states, to submit the waiver for him and when the Embassy received the approved waiver packet, that he would get another date to go and drop off his passport and submit any additional paperwork he would need to give them. Now another waiting game begins. Over all the experience was very smooth. |

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
