Citizenship application status

[GringoCArlos]

Has the DR government resumed accepting and processing citizenship applications by foreigners married to a dominicana, with children, or is this still on "hold" pending reviews of questionable past applications/grants????

They have been accepting applications since November 2008. See my post (No. 11) on that subject below:

Do we know yet when the new constitution and in turn residency/citizenship laws will be actually in effect yet?

I ask because as a Extranjero married to a Dominicana, the law has been equalized and we're entitled to our Citizenship in the same way the ladies have been before.

Nobody knows the exact date when the new Constitution will finally be approved.
