visa problems

I am American, and my fiance is Dominican. He has played baseball in the US for the past seven years with no problems. This year when he went to the consulate to get his visa, they told him that he needed additional information to prove his birthdate. I understand that DR has had a lot of issues with players changing their ages, but in his case this IS NOT SO. The problem comes in where his birthcertificate was declared late, which is not uncommon there. His family and I have done everything that we can possible think of to prove his birth year is correct, but so far..nothing. I am extremely worried now because he needs to be in the US as soon as possible to start spring training before he is released from the team. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Mkohn,

He brought a copy of his school record, and they said it did not have "enough" information on it. As far as the baptismal record he went to see the Padre, but I don't know what the outcome of that was.

I have a copy of a I-129F form from INS (which is a petition for alien fiance.) But I was told that the processing time for that is 2 months.
