Has anyone had an interview in Juarez in the last few months for a K3 visa?

Guillermo had his interview earlier this month. I didn't go because of work and school obligations. I wrote a letter affirming my support and reasons why I couldn't attend, since it was STAR testing time at school. Memo said this was helpful. He said there were a lot of people, and most people on the street were haggling him to help him with his paperwork. He said it was very creepy. He paid the interview at Banamex in his hometown. He went for the medical exam the day before and picked up the results in the afternoon. There was a lot of waiting in line and once again waiting in the different buildings. They don't allow any metal or cell phones in the consulate, so be prepared. Only your spouse is allowed in, but they'll call the US citizen if they want to ask more questions. You are not required to be there. They consular official asked him in Spanish about how we met, my visits to Mexico, our families, and our wedding. We had pictures, emails, phone calls, joint tax returns. However, the most important piece of evidence were the photos. After showing the photo album and telling stories about each page, the consular official told Guillermo, "Su visa esta aprobada!". He left around 1 pm and crossed the Cordova bridge around 4 pm. There they looked at his paperwork and gave him the I-94 arrival/departure record. He said the officials in the consulate and at the border were very nice, the only problem were the people on the streets of Juarez. Good luck during your interview and hopefully you'll be reunited very soon!

Hello, congratulations to both on your process.. I have a couple of questions for you if possible since it is hard to get information for K-3 Visas.

I received the NVC notice dated May 7, 2007, that my I-129F (for K-3 Visa) was forwarded to Juarez.

At this point, is only my wife in Mexico going to receive something to follow up on??? Was I suppose to receive anything else from NVC or Juarez for me to follow up??? How long should I wait before trying to contact them to see when the appointment is, since I'am worried about the mail in Mexico???

Any information will help.

Our petition was approved in Feb. and left the NVC in just a couple of days. I got the packet in March. My husband got the packet in April. We were surprised he actually got it. His interview was May 4th. Once you get the packet you can snail mail it or scan and email it. The visa application needs to be filled out online and printed. The only thing you need from the packet is the appointment letter. All the other information is on the CDJ website under K-3 visas.
