Once your application has been approved for you wife to enter the USA what is the time frame that would allow for her to visit the Dominican Republic again. can she travel back to dominican republic lets say within 1 month to attend a family affair (ex. Birthday, Graduation, Funeral , Ect....)

Your wife will most likely receive a "single entry" visa to come to the U.S. She can go back to the D.R. any time she wants but will not be able to re-enter the U.S. until her green card comes through. Probably around 5 or 6 months. The problem is that if she is required to redo biometrics or gets called for an interview, she won't be able to get back into the U.S. to do it. Best bet is to stay in the U.S. 'till the card comes through. If a real emergency arrises then you do what you have to do. Then you will have to deal with the consulate to clear things up and you probably have an idea of what dealing with the consulate is like.
