Ciudad Juarez Consulate here we come!

[onofre 1]

Ok VJ, the time has come for fiancee and I to meet each other at Ciudad Juarez! I leave tomorrow, Tuedsay 16th. I'll bring pics and detailed information of the interview, including hotel info, spending, ect..

But before I leave, and it must be the nervousness that I have right now. This is what I gathered so far, please let me know if Im missing anything:

passport

copy and original of my birth certificate

copy of state id

Financial support, bank statement, 401k, tax transcripts (3yrs)

Letter of intent to marry her from me.

Pictures, phone bills, phone card receipts, of ongoing relationship.

She has the rest of her part.

*But does she have to make double copies of the DS-156 & DS-156k? Because it said "fill in duplicate forms DS-156"? It might sound stupid but this confused me.

*Do I have to fill/sign out ANY of these forms, too or just her?

*There is a document in the fiancee packet called CDj-401, this for is not found on the ENGLISH version site but it was found on the SPANISH version and this confused me. http://ciudadjuarez.usconsulate.gov/wwwhcdj401.html

If so, do we fill it out just incase or what should we do? Its a 4pg form.

Please give me last minute advice because its show time and I think when people get nervous we tend to make mistakes or miss something important even of we have a check list to follow!

wish us luck!

GOOD LUCK! You will be fine! Only thing I see missing on list is passport size photos and bank receipt for fee (I'm assuming you are doing that in CDJ). Tell you fiance not to forget her passport so they can put visa in it. And don't forget the appointment letter you received in the packet.

Yes- you will need 2 copies of DS156 and DS156K. I've never seen CDJ-401. Maybe something new in fiancee packet? Doesn't hurt to have it just in case.

Last minute advise - bring something to occupy your time while waiting outside the consulate. Sounds like you are really prepared. Relax! Tell your fiance to take her time in answering questions. Don't let them rush you and she get flustered.

She will be fine.

Tell us how it goes!

We will be thinking of you.
