Consulate Review: Dominican Republic Review Topic: General Review Event Description Review Date : February 27, 2012 Embassy Review : Overall the interview was simple and straight forward. Their recommendation for spousal presence is really a requirement. Make sure your relaxed and honest about every detail when answering questions. Be precise when answering. We were in and out of the consulate within 3hrs. The worst part was the enormous line to get in early in the morning. Rating : Moderate

*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.

** Not all cases are transfered
