calling the Emabssy about packet 3

[Kimchimex 8]

My guess by looking at others time lines is that we sould receive the exciting Packet 3 with our open invitation letter for K1 Fiancee visa interview in Cd. Juarez Mexico...sometime next week.

Would it be wise to call Juarez & check to be sure that it has been sent to Petitioner in USA & Fiancee in Mexico?

Or should we sit tight & wait for it? (just getting really excited!!!!)

What did others from Mexico do???

Definitely call. You may be able to schedule your appointment already. We have almost identical timelines, and they told me they sent our packet 3 on 4/4 (makes no sense but allowed us to make our appt nonetheless). You probably dont want to schedule it for another couple weeks at least, if only to make sure you get the invitation letter first, but it will allow you to start making concrete plans. Let me know what they tell you.

Hi! Why did you decide not to have medical and ASC on the same day?

Hi! Why did you decide not to have medical and ASC on the same day?

No reason in particular. I'm forced to spend an extra day in Juarez because the airline I chose (for being the cheapest) doesn't fly there on tuesdays, so i gotta fly there on monday instead because wednesday would be too late. Since I have that extra day whether I want it or not, there's no real reason to squeeze it all together. I did my research and it's cheaper for us to stay an extra night that find an alternative flight because every other airline is so much more expensive than vivaaerobus. I might do both the medical exam and the ASC on the 7th, but I'm not too worried about it at the moment.
