You may be wondering why we waited a year to do the Interview. It's a long-short story in that the first time we went, the consulate took the whole week off for Thanksgiving. Luckily though, a year later we did get around to making a second consulate attempt. The interview went pretty well. My fiancee got her visa. javascript:emoticon(' ') She was quized on my parents and sibling's names, and how we first met. So that much was pretty simple. As everyone complains, the worst part is the waiting. My fiancee said that most of the people interviewing received visas. I think what earned us the visa, was that my fiance had never entered the US illegally. That and we had two financial sponsors (myself and my mom). I also loaded up my fiance's visa portfolio with vacation photos from our trip to, plane tickets, and other things. Whether they looked at it all, I can't say for sure.
Also, if you're the US fiance and don't look Mexican, be sure to take $500 ext... read complete review

THIS WAS THE WORST EXPERIECE EVER. EVERYTHING WENT SMOOTHLY UNTIL MY FIANCE'S INTERVIEW. THE CO FELT HE DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH "EVIDENCE", DESPITE ABOUT 20 EMAILS THAT DATED BACK FROM 2005. BUT HE WANTED TO SEE EMAILS FROM 2003, WHEN WE MET, AND MORE PHOTOS. (WE HAD ONLY BROUGHT 2 PHOTOS)
WE WERE GIVEN A WHITE SHEET OF PAPER THAT BASCIALLY SAID WE COULD RETURN THE NEXT DAY AS LONG AS WE HAD MORE EVIDENCE. WHICH WE DID, AND WE FINALLY GO THE VISA, BUT ONLY BECAUSE I WORMED MY WAY INTO THE CONSULATE AND SPOKE ON BEHALF OF MY HUSBAND.

The two days in Juarez were pretty stressful but went super well. We got up really early on both days. The medical exam was easy and took a few hours once we got in the door, but most of that time we were just waiting in our separate waiting rooms. We went to the clinic next to the consulate and would recommend it. They treated Juan very well. The consulate day was LOOOOONG and that was the source of any complaints (that for 14 hours from when we got in line to when he came out I couldn't go inside and was outside across the street on the sidewalk in 110 degree heat, really direct sun, and dirt blowing all around, and juan was inside where they are all picky about which chair you can sit in, etc.). But, in the end, we got the visa and it was all worth it. We're rating it bad because the waiting was pretty ridiculous and they were kind of rude and don't let the US citizen in or allow any communication during the day.

Also, feel free to write me if you've any questions!
Overall, things went smoother than we had expected. Like everyone says, just be prepared for A LOT of waiting, fees and a city that is not so great for tourists.
We had never received our interview packet from Juarez, but through email they told us they had sent it back in May. We were told we could come to Juarez any day before our interview for a copy. So Monday morning about 7:15 we went to stand in line at the visa info window. They officially open at 8, but started recieving people at about 7:45. Luckily the line was in the shade, because it was really hot out. While we were waiting, Valentin ran accross the street and got his pics taken (150 pesos). I was the only gringa in sight which surprised me- although later on I did spot several other Americans. We got to the little window at 10. The guy was not particula... read complete review

The immigration officer who received all the forms upon entering the consulate was nice in allowing my then fiancee to retake the passport photos. Although we had our own photos, it so happens to be what they prefer. So take them across the street from the consulate, they may make you take them again if you get them elsewhere. They didn't allow me to accompany my fiancee into the interview, so I waited outside for him. TRUE LOVE- I got the worst sunburn one could get ( I looked like a raccoon), there's absolutely no shade. The whole process took a total of about six hours, how tormenting, but well worth it. According to my husband, the interview was very easy going and carefree. The immigration officer asked him how long we had known each other, where we had met, if we were married and if we were going to get married, if I was a US citizen, if all my immediate family were US citizens, if he had met them and he even asked questions about our photos used for evidence who is that,... read complete review
