Does anyone know or have experience. Dominican wife (has her green card) of US citizen bringing her kids to US. We have a final interview scheduled in Santo Domingo after doing all the paperwork from the US. Does anyone know how long it is before the consulate issues the paperwork after the final interview? They give the petitioner a packet that allows that person to leave the DR for the US. I tried to call the Embassy but all I get is recordings sending me where I do not need to go. Never get to talk to a person.

About two or three weeks.

Anyone have a Embassy-Consulate phone number that lets you talk to a person not a recording?

For my wife it was one week however this time I did all the paperwork while in the US. Now we just have our final interview for the kids in Santo Domingo. Wonder if it will be different time frame.

You need to buy a PIN number at "Banco Reserva" if you wish to speak with a human being at the US embassy. It's all about money :classic:
