From NVC to Ciudad Juarez

[Ernesto y Yadira 0]

Our approved petition has been sent to Ciudad Juarez on Sept 16th......

Now, what do we do.....do we call Juarez to confirm? or do we just wait for my fiancee to get her Package.

Btw, do any of you know if there can be some sort of travel permit/document....when you are not able to get the passport? Or can we try to get her passport in Ciudad Juarez the same day?

Thanks,

Passport? She needs a Mexican passport... I assume one can be applied for if not already.

Yeah, but we are still having problems since there is a error in her birth certificate and her mother's (She needs to get permission from her parents) in order to get a passport.

I found this information:

What is a Travel Document and Who Needs One?

If you are not a U.S. citizen, you may need permission to return to the United States after traveling abroad. This permission is granted through a travel document. Travel documents are also given to people who want to travel, but cannot get a passport from their country of nationality.

I believe this is for alien's who are already inside the US and need to leave and re-enter... not for aliens who are entering for the first time.

I see. You are right

Your situation sounds a little strange. Why would an adult need to get a parents permission to get a passport? Are you the US citizen? I can tell you that if you show up to Juarez without a valid Mexican passport for the visa applicant, you will be denied. Don't take this personally since I'm only trying to help you, but you sound grossly under prepared for your trip to Juarez. It worries me that you entertained the idea that you(or your fiance) could go to a visa interview without a passport. There are a lot of forms to fill out and documents to bring as well. You don't need to wait for the package to arrive. If you wait for it to arrive in Mexico, you'll probably be waiting forever. It is no package either. It's just a letter that tells you to go to the consulate website for the requirements for your interview. You can have the letter printed out at the consulate when you go for your interview. I would seriously suggest that you start reading through the Juarez thread on this forum and start learning about what it is that you and your fiance need to do before going to Juarez. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...&start=3465

Don't rely soley on the information on the Juarez consulate's website because it is very vague and really not accurate. If you simply follow what they tell you on there, you will be denied because you won't have all the required things. It is possible to get a Mexican passport in a day in some cases but I wouldn't count on it. If the Mexican's birth certificate is from the same city where you are trying to get a passport then it's possible. If the BC is from Mexico City, it takes up to 2 weeks to get one in another location.

Our time lines are very similar. I highly recommend reading the Juarez consulate thread there is a wealth of information there. Why would you fiancee need her parents permission to get a passport?

Yes, I am the U.S. Citizen.

You obviously did not know that she is 17 (this info posted in a previous forum/thread). Btw, thank you for telling me that I sound "grossly under prepared".....very nice way to put it....but FALSE!!!!

Now, she will be getting her passport after all (For those of you who have the same situation with a passport, etc, etc......in Mexico, by law passed by President Felipe Calderon, SRE is able to expedite 1 year passports under the evaluation by the local office).

We have everything ready ("over prepared"), we are just waiting for Packet 3 from Ciudad Juarez. What do you mean we don't have to wait for the packet to arrive? Who told you this? I called Ciudad Juarez and they informed me that they are processing our case. I remember asking if we could go after they send the package and we don't receive it (or it takes too long), and they said that we always have to check with them by calling. I was also informed that the packet would also be sent to me.

Did you guys go to Juarez without a packet 3 and an official letter?

I would seriously suggest that you start reading through member postings before trying to answer questions from them. I am just trying to help you too.

Thanks for the info, every little bit helps. But btw, I already knew everything you said.

God Bless

Been to Juarez, got our visas(K1 and K2), been in the states for a while and currently waiting for our second NOA after filing adjustment of status to permenent resident and EAD. So you are right, I don't have any knowledge and shouldn't be answering questions. You are the one who thought there was a chance you could go to a visa interview without a valid passport. I apologize that I underestimated your expertise but having a valid passport is probably step 1 on the list of being "overprepared."
