Well Im back from Juarez. It really sucks!!!! It feels like we hit rock bottom in civilization!! We stayed in a hotel right next to the consulate, between a ton of mom and pop restaurants, Taxis, and immigration coyotes!!. They practically pull you into their cardboard offices with the promise of Free advice in any immigration issue and then the truth comes out: “ orale guerita! Son 200 dolares if i fill out any form For you. Jaja!
Now this was my journey:
Medical on wednesday: we went to the clinic at 6 am. They took my appointment letter and passport, then i waited for two hours to be called. They took blood samples and they left marks on my arm like i was a victim of domestic violence!! then waited for another 30 minutes
And I was called for x-rays, and physical examination. I felt like a porn star! Jaja. I was in a room with the nurse, she took my blood pressure and asked to strip down to my birthday suit!! Then a very nice female dr... read complete review

Here is my report on my fiance’s experience in Ciudad Juarez . . .
Juan arrived in Ciudad Juarez on Sunday and he said that it was freezing. So for those of you headed there, make sure you prepare for the extremely cold temperature. He arrived in the Juarez airport and said that it’s a very small airport. He took a taxi to his hotel (right in front of the consulate). The taxi ride cost 220 pesos.
As for the hotel he stayed at, it was the Hotel La Playa, directly in front of the consulate however, he told me to tell you guys: HE DID NOT RECOMMEND THIS HOTEL. He said the hotel was not too safe, that anyone could really get into it. Also, he said that the room he got was like the last one on the second floor and he felt all isolated on the edge. Also, he said that the food in the restaurant of the hotel was not the best. Oh yeah not to mention that one of the locks in his door was broken, which made him paranoid all the time. Also, the lights went out for... read complete review

The interview process would have been relatively hassle-free for us,except for the fact that they closed the consulate on the Thursday before Veterans' Day. We arrived on Tuesday, Nov.7 (flew in from Toluca), did the medical on the 8th, got turned away on the 9th--a Thursday-- (without prior notice they refused even people with appointments!!), and of course the next day was Veterans' Day so the consulate was closed until MONDAY so we basically just stayed in our hotel room for four days straight (Rafa was skeched out about Juarez! No offense to those who are from there or who like it but it does NOT have a nice vibe about it....)
So when he finally had his interview the officer was super-friendly and nice, he said our case was so romantic (awww), and that he had no problem whatsoever with anything and CONGRATULATIONS! Of course Rafa had never been to the US before so that made everything easier for our case.
But having to spend an extra 3-4 days there was a major hassl... read complete review

Over all was a good experience. The medical exam at the clinic right next to the consulate was faster than expected, per their own staff recommendation and my own experience you actually wait less if you get there later than 8am. I was there at 8am and was done by 10am, but I think I would have been out around the same time if I had gotten there at 9am. Same thing about picking up the results, if you go after 2pm you get them faster, they're open until 4pm so you can get them any time between 2 and 4 pm. The cost of the exam was $148.50 USD or $1633 mexican pesos.
The next day I got to the consulate at 8:15am and got in immediately, there was no line outside. They don't let any metal things, electronics, cell phone, mirrors, food, and other items inside the consulate so make sure you check your bags/purses for those items before you go. There was a line inside for the initial document review at building "C", I waited about 3hrs before they called my name. They didn't follow a fi... read complete review

Despite the huge crowds and long lines, the consulate seemed very efficient. However, expect long days of waiting (for both of you). The medical exam must be done at one of the clinics located near the consulate; the one we went to was right next door, on the same side of the road. Look for the line coming out the door. My fiance went in before 7:30 am and didn't come out until 2 pm. You do NOT need vaccinations for a K1 visa. My fiance spent a long time waiting in a line inside the clinic just to find out he didn't need the vaccinations. You pick up the results around the back of the clinic after 2 pm. The following day, my fiance entered the consulate before 8 am. We got in the line around 7 am, which was already really long, but I wouldn't worry about getting there super early - they let everyone in even if you're at the end of the line. The USC will NOT be allowed into the consulate under ANY circumstances unless you have a note of permission from inside. You can wait ac... read complete review
