Hey guys,
So me and my GF of almost 5 years now are planning to get married here in the DR this year. I have investigated a lot about the marriage and visa process here and am still confused. Curious if someone with some knowledge can lead me step by step. I want to know do I marry as a Dominican Citizen or a US citizen to her? Also, what are the documents needed? I heard that there is this new form we need, 2 forms stating that we are single or something like that? Also, once we are married I was told to take my marriage certificate back to the US and get it translated and validated there? That is all I have heard so far. On to the visa part, once that is all set and done was is the correct visa that I need to get her permanent residence in the US. I know there is k3 or another type. We are both students so I already have a party to sponsor her there. I just want to know in detail the whole process of going through marriage and visa. I have looked at Dominicanatotheusa.com but have not seen anyone with a similar situation... Thanks to anyone that can help.
