Appointment Letter--Please help!!!

[danistarlene 0]

Okay, so on April 11, 2013 I received a letter stating that my case had been forwarded to the Juarez Embassy and that it would be processed there. Since that point in time I have yet to receive an actual appointment letter from the Embassy. On June 18th I contacted them to ask why I hadn't received it and they told me that they had sent it but that they would resend the appointment letter and that I will have to wait another 4-6 weeks. It's about 5 weeks now and I still haven't received anything so I decided to contact the congressman the Friday before last asking him to see if he could get the appointment letter to me by email but I still haven't heard anything. Its been a total of over 3 months just waiting for this letter and I'm not sure what I can do. I'm getting really anxious because I had hope that he would have been able to come here before school starts but it doesn't look like he will at the rate everything is going and this is my last semester for my Bachelor's degree so its going to be hard to focus on that and this at the same time... :/ Does anyone know what I can do about this? Please help....

i contacted my congressman and they were able to get letter quickly for us. However others in the post i made said you could get the letter at the embassy.

We have been waiting for that crazy letter for over a month. Have made a number of calls to the Consulate's office and was told they are sending a new letter via DHL only never to receive that! My financee will fly from Mexico City to Ciudad Juarez this Monday (7/29/13) and will go to the Consulate's information window to secure the letter. I have read about tons of people that have done the same thing. The Consulate's office knows full well about the problems with the letters getting sent out and or delivered. I will post up next week on how things went. Her interview is Thursday 8/1/13...please keep us in your prayers. thanks

On a side note I have no idea why the Consulate's office cannot get with the times and simply email the letter...wow what a concept

Good morning everyone,

In my mailbox yesterday was not one but two letters from the American Consulate General's office in Ciudad Juarez! After repeated calls to the Consulate's office and being told they would send a new letter via DHL overnight and never received it here are two letters. One letter is dated July 3rd and the other letter is dated July 11th but they are both postmarked July 22nd. Something else they are not mailed from Ciudad Juarez but from the Consulate's P.O. box in El Paso, Texas. It appears to me they must print the letters and they are put in a box. Then maybe once a month someone drives from Ciudad Juarez across the border to El Paso and drops them off at the post office. The funny thing is I was expecting some type of fancy letter with official Consulate General seal, original signature, and maybe even a embossed security stamp. BUT NO it is a simple white 8 1/2 by 11 inch piece of paper that was printed on a laser printer. It is not even signed! Nothing fancy but worth more than gold! We had all but given up on this letter as Elizabeth has her interview next Thursday (8/1/13) and was simply going to the information window at the Consulate's office to have them print her a letter. Great, this is one thing we can check off our list. Elizabeth flies from Mexico City to Ciudad Juarez on Monday, will do her medical on Tuesday morning, has her bio on Wednesday afternoon, and interview on Thursday at 7:30.

I think I will frame at least one copy of this letter!

Every step we have taken has been in God's Hands and it is by His Hands this has happened.

Thanks to God and God Bless each of you

That is great news!! i have a question, when you called the consulate did they tell you what date they mailed you the letter?? I was told ours was sent on June 17th, until today I have not received anything :/ Ive called the consulate sooo many times but they were no help! Each operator always said something different, this past saturday was the last time i called and the lady said we had to file a report and the letter would be sent out again, but i am not waiting another month! We have decided to ask for the letter at the consulate when we arrive in Juarez. I filled all the forms last night, we will be arriving to juarez next thursday hopefully getting the letter printed that same day, june 2nd his medical, 3rd fingerprints, and the interview is on the 6th! Hopefully we receive that letter before we leave!

Btw, yeah its confusing to understand why it taked so long to receive the letter, someone i met on facebook that is also doing the K1 process was told her letter was sent may 28th, her fiance received it june 28th with the date stamped of june 26th!
