It depends where are you residing now and since when you are residing in said place.
Also, if your husband is in consent to file for divorce and he will sign all necessary documents prior filing the divorce action, you can take advantage of the DR Divorce Law 142 that allows foreign citizens, who are in consent, who sign all necessary documents and at least one of the appear in person before the judge at the hearing, to file for a Fast Divorce by mutual consent in the Dominican Republic and get divorced in as little as 3 weeks. This is the fastest and easiest way to get divorced, no matter where you live.
