[joseYFabiola 0]

we arrived in juarez on sept. 1 2008, we went to the medical the next day on the 2nd around 9 in the morning, picked up our results that same day around 4 p.m. Everything went really well and smooth until our interview day which was on thursday the 4th at 6:45 a.m, we arrived at 6:20 and the guard let my wife in around that time. so I went across the street and waited for her luckily for me I didnt have to pay for a chair I just got there and sat down on one of the chairs cause the women who was sitting there suddenly left and didnt notify the owners who rented them out. I waited for like five hours and around 11 am. my wife came out but when I saw her she was sad and she nodde her head from across the street. I knew something wasnt right, when We met up I asked her what happened she sayd, kinda crying I didnt get the visa, So we went back to the hotel and talked, She told me"" everything went ok when They reviewed my paperwork then they told me to wait for my name to be called for my interview. then my name was called the first thing I noticed on that particular window on building "B" was that allot of applicants kept leaving early from that window, so when I went up to that window I noticed that the C.O looked mad and STRICT, so she called me and she interviewed me, She asked me how did we meet I sayd we met Online, cause thats the truth I cant lie to her, she sayd how long have we been in a relationship I sayd almost 2 years, she sayd how often did he visit me I sayd 3 times a year, because he lives in california and he works allot. she sayd that was a little bit, she asked for photos I only brought 8 photos, she sayd thats a little bit she asked me do I have more I sayd yes we have tons of more photos, she sayd you should of brought more, she reviewed other evidence like phone bills which I only took 2bills from june and july, she sayd thats not enough I want to see more bills from more months in the past, I showed her a paper which showed a resume of the money my husband sent me but It was a fast resume He printed out which only showed the dates and who received it and the transffer ammount, ( I didnt printout page by page only the yearly resume) she sayd she wanted to see who sent it and who received it page by page month by month. she asked where are your marriage rings I told her I couldnt bring them because I didnt feel safe bringing them to this CITY, they are 18k really expensive rings. she sayd your should of brought them and hid them outside. I showed her letters that my husband jose sent me but they didnt have the envelope with the seal of the post office, she sayd she wanted to see the envelope with seal. well as you know my interview went very very very bad, she sayd she want Convinced, and told me I needed to come back in 1 year I asked thats a long time I have more evidence you asked for, I can bring that right of way, she she sayd ok then 4 months. She gave me a white sheet stating on the comments section"Need strong proof of Relatiionship, Come back in aprox. 4 months from sept. 4 2008" but Im confused she didnt tell me If I need to make another appointment or If I just need to come back in aprox four months and bring the page she Gave me along with the evidence she asked for. What do I do. we already have all the phone bills collected since june 2007 when we met. and also I printed out the text message bills since june 2007 ((thats allof of pages 600 pages worth of calls and text mesages) and We Printed out every moneygram moneytransffer invoice month by month since june 2007, emails also were printed out since june j2007, I started to write letters to her. I bought her a very beautiful Ring gold with diamonds as a birthday gift and sent it to her by mail, I kept the Receipt and save it also and also I found the two receipts of our Wedding Rings and her Gold Diamond Necklace I gave her, I took 138 photos when I was with her for 3 weeks, and On every day we changed clothes like 3 times to take as many photos as possible with different clothes and different places like her room, plaza, her moms room and places we traveled to like Zamora, guadalajara ect..... so we put all the photos together from past visits and we have like 213 photos all together. I cant visit her that offten cause of my work , im only allowed a month of vacations a year so I visit her like 3 times a year. for 3 weeks each time.My questions is for those of you who went through this in the past. When we go back to Juarez, are we gonna see that same consul that denied us. or another one.

At least you managed to cut it down to four months. You need to get your husband to contact the embassy to arrange the next appointment and make sure that he times his vacation with your interview. Make sure the application doesn't get sent back to USCIS!

Sounds like you really need to drown them in an abundance of evidence. Your husband should help to provide that.

Also, ask him to get a congressman involved, as the 4 months sounds rather arbitrary.

You should have gone in with your wife!! You were there, why didn't you get in? It'd give the consul extra assurance.

I believe in Juarez they only allow the applicant in.

As for the OP: seems to me you did send her in with very few evidence. Make a ton of photocopies of ALL the phone logs for ALL the months and the like, pictures spanning the years, letters, etc. - better safe than sorry. Be prepared in 4 months and you'll get it. Best of luck.

During my interview, the consul didn't even ask to see my pictures or anything. She looked at our forms and documents very carefully and then asked literally 3 questions. Took all of 5 minutes.

They sound awefuly strict in Juarez. Why is that?

Some consulates are more strict than others. That's why.

I don't think some consulates are stricter than the other, it's just a matter of luck who gives you the interview. We also had the interview in Ciudad Juarez. I went with my husband to the interview (they don't let the USC inside). I made my husband take tons of documents and pictures with family, honeymoon, religious wedding, cards, bills, everything. They did not see any of it. Like Elbereth said, they only asked for our forms and documents. His interview was at 8 am and was out by noon. It's all a matter of the person who interviews you, that's it. He said that they asked him if we were also married religiously, and he said yes, by the Catholic Church....and that's it.

You should try giving the consulate a call, to see what they can do for you. Maybe you can get them to give you an early interview.

HY everyone Am I going to see the same C.O that denied us, when we return for our second interview or are we going to see a different C.O. Can you tell me about your experience when you got denied and you had to return to the consulate later in the year again. ok this is what im taking as proof of our relationship. is it enough. 215 photos of just me and her differnt places and differnt clothes, 500 pages of txt and phone calls, 20 email pages, 10 moneygram moneytransffer receipts, receipts of rings and jewerly I bought her, letters we sent to each other with envelopes, receipts of gifts I bought her, Post Office receipts of packages I sent her, Msn Messenger chat transcripts, the first time I went to the interview I only took 8 photos, two bills and one email letter and a letter that he sent me without the envelope.
