Juarez Consulate

[nm123 0]

We're married!!!! It was a short and sweet 7 minute deal at the court house. In a year or so, we'll have a church wedding. I feels a little different being a Mrs. but it feels good! I feel like I have a friend for life.

I'll get back on later but I think all the new questions that have come up have been helpful (thanks brian and jmmr!).

I have never been married myself nor have I had a live in girlfriend. The thought of waking up with someone in my bed everyday seems a bit startling.

Of course, there is also a plus.

Best of Luck.

Ok... Angel called CDJ today, and they told him that they will be moving on November 1, which is a Saturday. So, apparently they are planning on moving that weekend and then being open.

Thanks for sharing the info. So geuss, I will be safe with Oct. 5/6. Not to be a worry wart, but I have never known any company let alone the government, to make a total move with no hitches.

I would feel better moving it up or back a week. But that is just me, your mileage may vary.

I agree- he seems to be fine with Oct 27 and 28, I just may have to give him a few extra bucks so he can pay for all of it. Although, at this point- I'd empty my entire savings just to have him here with me

Just out of curiousity, where is ciudad juarez moving too? like the consulate is actually moving? so there is going to be a different address? Sorry it is probably a dumb

question.

I've never had a live-in boyfriend either, and he's been an awesome, loving, and caring husband (even if it's just been a few days haha). I hope we never change and only get fat. haha

Here's the CDJ map on Google: http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&amp...33411f1eb09b96a

If you zoom out on the map, it's on the south part and labeled "New Consulate." It shows a couple of hotels too. I've heard that it's a little more dangerous in that part of town.

Haha too funny! I think that's what's supposed to happen when you get married and you're happy- you both gain weight... but you do it together, so that makes it romantic, right??

Hello all- I know I asked this question before, but I'm going to ask it again as Maria and nm123 have recently gone through the interview. On the DS-156 when it asks for "National Identification Number" did your fiances leave it blank, or fill it in??

Maria- I hope that Jorge has safe travels tomorrow and everything goes smoothly. Enjoy it!!! I won't have internet access this weekend, but I hope to hear about it when I get back Monday

Take care everyone and have a great weekend!

Good question, I left mine blank. I guess I should at least go back and put in none. Searching VJ this question was asked once about the Phillipines 156 and the answer was to put in none and the VJ example says none.

I did a rough 156 and 156K with my fiance when I was in Mexico in May. I was going to do a tidier version this weekend. I am guessing the answer is none. I will double check my immigration how to book and let you know if it mentions anything.

But it would be nice to know what actually passed the test in Mexico.

Hello Caity-

I put N/A for Non applicable. Thank you for your hopes he will actually be arriving on Wednesday due to some other plans his mom had. I had my little b*tch fit over that... but oh well. I understand what he and his family is going through. it's hard to say good bye for mostly ever....

I was hoping he would come this weekend but it just won't work. his mom was planning a surprise party for sunday... After being upset for a few days, i now feel a lot better and understand it a lot better. I have to put myself in their shoes. Even though it is very hard to do that sometimes.... it's necessary. I had a really hard time dealing with that this time... but I managed ok and it'll work out. I am going to be married to him for ever...his family only has so little days left. So i do understand that. I just feel a lot of times that I give too much to people and i don't understand why some people can't give up things for me? I want to be selfish sometimes... but that's not me. So yea. it's a strange mental disturbance. i'm ok i had my tears.

Caity- did you guys decided on a sooner POE?

Have a nice weekend everyone

My husband put "NONE" on that question.

good luck everyone!

Hey jmmr, quick question, i read somewhere, and because i have read so much stuff on everything about the fiance visa, i can not remember where i read it, but anyway, what did jorge wear to the consulate for his interview? I read that your supposed to dress like really nice, like the works, suit, tie, the best that you can, did jorge do that? if not what did he wear so i can tell my fiance alfredo to do the same thing. (p.s about the jelousy thing that your experiencing with jorge and his family, i get that all the time, now i dont feel so crazy. I know how it feels to want him completely for you and it is very hard to get over. I doubt i will every completely get over it, but I am trying my best to control it. Its hard, so best of luck to ya

Hey thanks for that It's ok. It's hard when plans change in that way the last minute....but I can't do anything about it.... BUT i managed to get Wednesday off, which is when he will arrive. I told him that I can't get the day off so that I can surprise him with balloons We are even putting up a sign at our house that says "Welcome home" and we are having a BBQ to help him feel welcome

Jorge dressed very nice. Not a suit and tie but he wore clothes like if were to work at a professional office. He didn't wear a tie. You know? Someone mentioned to me to wear something like "if you were going to church." I think it was NM123. That's what I told him and he dressed up but not too fancy. Something nice. Definetly not jeans and flip flops.

Good luck to you and all of that!!! It'll be over before you know it. We have been working on this since around November... I'm including the research process as well. So it actually went by quickly.

Not too shabby!!

Have a good week!
