Juarez Consulate

[chinman 0]

Thanks everyone! We are ready, and that's all we can do is prepare. We practiced all the questions, and I have everything organized in a binder, with divider pockets, we also practiced finding the documents they will be asking for.

Just wanted to mention that they told her to come back at 2:00 to get the medical results, but we got there at 1:30 and they are already started to let people go around back to get their results.

If Juarez wasn't on the news for violence (don't turn on the news when you're here) I would swear I was in Monterrey, to walk to the consulate and back is not bad, and we went to the mall across the street a couple times today, so just go where you need to go, be alert, and you'll be fine!

I'm sorry that he is still waiting for DHL, how come some people get it the same day?

That is a DHL issue, I'm pretty sure his visa was ready since friday or yesterday because was weekend ... DHL guy told me the process and admited that sometimes they have "little delays" to pick them up from Consulate ... unfortunately we don't have choice or way to know where the visa is.

Do you guys know if we can pay extra at DHL to get the Visa delivered faster....in other words, if DHL offers different delivery options?

Is this DHL the same DHL we know here in the U.S.?

Thanks much,

Ernesto

Chinman,

How is everything going so far?

She got into the consulate at like 7:50, i'm not sure when i should go back down there. I was thinking to walkt back around noon, and then every 90 minutes or so. I don't want her walking back alone, especially being all dressed up in a suit.

That sounds good ... lot of people waiting to get in?

for the line she was in I'd say she was about #30 ish. that was at 7:30. Somebody needs to open that restaurant next door with all the outside seating, they would make a killing!!!

Hey Chinman, any news yet?

Roberto is still waiting in Juarez. If there were a way to make DHL to go faster then we would have paid it. We could have saved hundreds of dollars in hotel and food. He ahs now had to change his flight twice.

He is getting very frustrated. We certainly thought he would have it by now.

You're welcome Andrea, anytime. I am glad it helped.

Yes!!! She got it!!! She was back to the hotel at 9:50 am, I couldn't believe it, I thought there must be a problem.

Now we just need to wait for DHL, which by the way you need to take cash into the consulate for, as they don't accept all types of debit cards. Luckily I gave her 100 pesos, I think it was like 102 pesos for DHL.

So I suppose we need to take a taxi somewhere to get the visa?

CONGRATULATIONS GUYS ... :dance: :dance:

You don't need to pay for a taxi to get it, Holiday Inn has that service for free.

Keep tracking DHL web site and when you see an update you need to reserve a car with receptionist ... even when they say service is just to take you to the place they can also pick you up ... request a supervisor if they don't want reserve that.

I am so happy for you guys. Now all you have to worry about is DHL. If you can have Ale write another explanation of what went down in the consulate it would be greatly appreciated.

Roberto got the Visa in hand this afternoon.

We are so excited. He goes to Merida in the morning.
