No, sorry...I haven't heard anything like that...Sucks that you got a Monday appointment, but congrats on getting it! Was it mailed to you? Check out Juarez visa forum for ideas for where to stay and where to eat as they have a whole section of the forum dedicated to that. Also, be careful if you buy a return ticket because many people don't get their visa from DHL when they expect it. We are considering buying a one way each way but haven't decided yet. I have had luck finding some flight and hotel packages on orbitz, etc, but from what I've heard they don't continue at the same price if you have to stay longer.

Good luck!

BTW, I have heard that there is a train in Copper Canyon in Chihuahua. I don't have any information about how safe that is or how expensive, but it's a possibility if you don't want to stay in Juarez for the weekend :dead:

Hi, I didn't get it in the mail yet, but called the 900 number and got a LIVE person very quickly! This is great to know in advance because the mail is so slow, I should receive it in two weeks approx. Now making the plans.... Probably, yes, we will buy only a one way ticket. I have the interview Monday at 13h, so I don't expect receive the visa the same day anyway.
