Juarez Consulate

Thanks Lucy!

Uriel is there now and has completed the Medical exam and is waiting for the pick up of the results at 2:00. He tried to pay for the visa today and the bank was closed because of some holiday, so now he will have to wait in line to do this in the morning before the interview. Hopefully that will all work out.

We are so excited that this is all finally happening.

He did find a hotel, not sure which one yet, but he was ok with it.

Will keep you all updated!

Please pray!

Danielle

Hi Danielle,

Yes the hotel we stayed at was the Hotel Monaco. It is within walking distance or a very short taxi ride. It is on the corner of "El Triunfo de la Republica" and Lopez Mateos. There is a shopping mall directly across the steet. It is about 3 - 4 blocks away. It was also pretty safe. I drove and parked the car there in their parking space. It has a guard. It is not fancy or anything, but it was decent. I wouldn't recommend the food there. A family member told me about the hotel so it turned out for the best. They charge you on a daily basis and if you pay in advance they gave us a discount. I don't recall exactly how much though, but since we stayed 5 days it came out to about $30/night.

Good luck to all who are headed that way! They also took my birth certificate, but I think he just handed everything! The funny thing was they didn't take any financial documents (which turned out for the best now I filed the AOS).

Again, GOOD LUCK!!

Good luck with your husband`s appointment, Danielle.

I`m glad to hear about the Hotel Monaco- I saw their web page and another for a Hotel Impala and they both sounded reasonable. But it said $350 and $400 per night and I wasn`t positive that those prices were in Pesos. I know a lot of business is done in Dollars there even when it doesn`t involve gringos. We have an appointment on the 28th and I`m driving, so I need a place with secure parking too.

I finally received the packet!!!!! Now we are working on organizing all of the paperwork. My fiance will have his medical on 2/13 (our 2 year anniversary) and his interview on 2/14 (Valentine's day) - so I hope to have good news on those two days!!! I think he's going to stay at the Holiday Inn.

Danielle - I'm praying for you and Uriel! I hope to hear a happy post from you tomorrow!!

You girls should definately have a party at the Holiday Inn after visa approvals!

Allie, thanks for the updated list, it sure feels great seeing a happy face next to mine.

Yeah! It's definitely good to see many smiling faces in the list

I hope we get to see one on KK's line soon! You REALLY deserve one girl

I wonder what happened to Jamie and Louisa, I hope their fiances got their visas.

Thanks Emma but you won't see a smiley on mine for many many months - they are currently working on MARCH/APRIL right now and we submitted in NOVEMBER!

That's ok, I'm back and forth every 6-8 weeks so we'll survive!

I can't wait to read your post Danielle - he must be out of there by now, right??

Another quick question... does the Mexican fiance's birth certificate have to be in English (a notarized translation) or do they just want the original in Spanish? Thanks!

[Danielle n Uriel 0]

WE HAVE A VISA!!!!!!!! Waiting for the details from Uriel! We'll post them in the morning...!!!!!

Congratulations to us!
