I guess I am late with this post. My husband's interview was on the Second of this month. I wasnt going to be allowed to go in with him (juarez, mexico) so we decided to save that money for his trip to the states . He flew to juarez on june 30. on July 1 was his medical and on july second his interview. Everything went smoothly, he says the consul was nice but that she kept giving him trick comments such as " ohh ok i see so you guys married in the usa" , " and this vacation was in the states?" " is this you with her family in usa?" he corrected her every time, letting her know we got married in mexico and he had NEVER set foot in the good ol USA before =D

My sister did all my paperwork, no RFE's. WE began on november 2009 and done by July 2010 8 months for a CR-1 visa =D ....

My best wishes to all of you still waiting, I thank you for your comments and topics that help me so much

Congratulations... :dance: :dance:

Yeah guys thank you, i havent been very active with my posts but i wanted to update my info on the topic and the timeline because I was always checking other people's timelines so I know how much that helps.

My husband is still in Juarez waiting for DHL to deliver his package and passport. I guess the 4th of July celebration and the weekend slowed down the process a bit.

Married: 6/5/2009

I-130 Sent: 11/6/2009

NOA1:11/13/2009 (CSC)

NOA2:02/12/2010 (3 months from NOA1)

NVC received:02/23/2010

Received DS-3032/I-864 Bill:02/23/2010

received IV bill:03/30/2010

Interview date:JULY 2, 2010 (consul said my husband was approved):)

Extra steps: Turns out in Juarez they do not tell you the final result of interview on the spot, you have to wait to receive a DHL package that contains the verdict and passport hopefully. Even though my husband was "approved" during interview (per consul answer) he was placed in Administrative Review on JUly 6 according to consulate operator.

Placed on AR post interview:07/06/2010

Picked up Blue slip AR (they kept his passport):7/09/2010

Visa issued: 09/15/2010

I was in AP for 2 months, 2 weeks and 2 days
