I am assuming that since she needs a passport, she's never gotten a visa. And if this is the case you have bigger problems. You'll need to get her the passport and then go through the visa process. Good luck.

You're saying that you didn't know you would have to file a petition to bring your wife to the states? She can't go anywhere without an approved visa and like another poster mentioned, if she doesn't yet have a passport, then she definately doesn't have a visa of any kind. My advice is to go to this website and read, read, read. It will tell you everything you need to know, what to do, how to get started and how long (approximately) it's going to take, as well as how much it's going to cost. Dominicans to the USA - Index. But, please know that the wait isn't nearly as long as it used to be. It won't be 2 or 3 years at all. Good luck.

Someone please tell me what my friend is doing wrong because she has been in the process for 4 (almost 5) years now trying to get a Visa for her husband.

The Dominican Passport will follow the"Spanish Protocol" and therefore so must one use this "protocol" in any applications fro visa to tehUSA. The US authorities and the US Law will recognize the "de" before the husbands surname as the correct surname of a married woman.

So long as thenames on both the passport and the forms 130 are the same there should be no problem.
