Hello VisaJourney-helpers,




Well, My husband and I finally received an update in our case (his case). So, we have a lawyer and yesterday morning I decided to call the lady who has our case; I called three times in a row. Two times it went to voicemail and the third time I called, someone answered. I asked for the lady and it was her who answered, then, she said "is this Alyssa?", I replied "yea". Then she goes on to tell me that NVC got in contact with her and that they will contact her in 15-30 days with all the interview information; this is a step forward.



We've been waiting for an update since Nov 2014. Yet, now we need to think about travel: transportation, stay, meals, length of stay, extra expenses, and whatever else. We are glad, anxious, and have doubts on interviewer. But, this is the best news that can change our lives for good.



Can any of you VisaJourney experts help me out about what to expect (links) in our travels and experience to the Consulate Juarez, Chihuahua?
