Welp found my answer so I’ll post it here to help others. 
 
The NVC notifies you by email when your case has left. Takes 2 days to get to Santo Domingo but you need to confirm this by doing a status search on the NVC site. Once it says “ready” then you have to go to www.usatraveldocs.com/do/do-iv-visaapplyinfo.asp this is where you will be able to apply for the visa (the DS-160) pay the fee and schedule your appointments ( one for fingerprints and the other for the interview) AFTER you have created an account and updated your profile. You will need to complete the DS160 first so you can get your application number (AA00XXXX). If you’re like me and there are children involved you will need to complete a DS-160 for each child (and pay the fee $265 each applicant) but this is easy once you finish the primary (or first DS160) it will ask to start a family application or another application. Both options will already have the information filled in from the first ds-160 so it takes less time if most of the information is going to be the same on each ds160. 
 
I had had to figure this out the frustrating way and it cost us 2 weeks of time because we thought they would have sent us something telling us what to do so we waited. They did say something in the NVC letter but it’s very generic and applies to the immigrant visa process and the K1 is not considered an immigrant visa so they send you down the wrong path. That process is a little bit different. Did it all today and now we are good to go with the 2 appointments. We have the VAC appointment for Monday 4/22/2019 and the interview for 5/16/19. Now we need to gather medical police record etc then we will be good to go. Thanks for reading. 

I just received my NOA2! Filed 10/10/2018....approved 2/13/2019! 

Thanks! Yes I received it in the mail yesterday. I haven’t checked on either site. The notice said the NVC will notify me by mail when they’ve sent it to the embassy. 

Applied 10/15/18 and got NOA2 Approval 2/12/2019. Now we wait some more but very pleased it only took 109 days to approve. NVC arrival and departure next.

I’m pretty sure you will need it for her I-485 adjustment of status that you will file after you’re married. It’s part of the I-485 application form not the K1.

Lucky you! Congratulations!

Congratulations!!!!
Did you get it via mail? Did they update your status on one (of both) of the web pages/sites?

congrats! Super jealous! 

Congrats! Applied 10/5 NOA1 date 10/12. Still waiting on NOA2. Same country Dominican Republic here. Following your timeline, hope the process goes smoothly on out for you. I will ask you some questions later if you don’t mind!

Congrats!!

Hello All I'm mew to this site. This thread inspired me to sign up instead of just lurking in the shadows lol. I have sent my 129F petition for my Dominican fiance on 10/05/2018 and they cashed my check on 10/12/2018. That is all I have for now. Haven't received the first Notice Of Action as yet but I'm expecting it to arrive soon. I feel pretty good about the paperwork we submitted. We covered everything on their checklist. This forum along with DR1 was also a huge help researching how and what to send before we submitted it all. I hope this process takes less than a year!

Awesome! Good luck for the rest of your journey.
Be sure to update your timeline if you haven't already, and keep us all in the loop

Yes, the mail is unreliable. My husband still hasn't received any communication through imposdom.   We have received everything via email.  
 
Moving would be no problem, just make sure to update the address with USCIS.  
 

You're welcome! Good luck with the process.
