Hi,

 

My mother in law will go go Ciudad juarez because her young son has the consulate appointment later this month. Should be very straightforward. 

 

However, on average for Ciudad Juarez, after approval of visa, how long is it taking to receive the package? She has reserved a hotel for around 7-8 days after the interview so she can get the papers, and cross the border to El Paso.

 

Any experiences???

9 months ago it took us 6 days to have the visa ready for pickup in Caborca.   I'd figure it take a day or 2 less getting it locally.
