Visa Approved. I want to say thank you to all you VJ members for posting helpful quotes, support and answering questions, even when you were inpatient and frustrated about the visa wait times. It

Hi all! My husbands interview is in CDJ on January 9, 2018!! Super excited but I have two questions that we are confused on and hoping someone can reply with help!

1: Can the police record from Mexico (or certificado de no antecedentes penales) be gotten there in Juarez before the day of his interview, or does it have to be from the Mexican state he grew up in 18 years ago? (My husband has lived in USA for 18 years and is flying straight to Cuidad Juarez for his interview, having to get it in his hometown in Mexico would be a whole other trip)

 

2: As far as the courier service goes to pick up your packet after your interview is approved, do you have to pick it up there in Juarez or can you select the courier service to be delivered in another state in mexico? Does anyone know if there is a time difference, or which option is less of a hassle?  THANKS IN ADVANCE

 

Congrats!

1.  -If your husband lived in Mexico for more than 6 months then he needs a police certificate from his home State. 

      -If your husband has lived in the US for more than 6 months, he needs a police certificate from the US.

      -If he has lived in any other country for over 12 months, he needs a police certificate from that country. 

I think he's gonna need to travel to his home state because they take a picture of you and include it on the certificate. 

 

2. It can be delivered somewhere other than Juarez. If you stay in Juarez it takes about 3 days. If not, it takes from 5 to 7 days. 

 

Hope it helps.

 

Can I ask how long did it take from Case Completed at NVC to interview schedule? Thanks

We found out in an email just a few days ago, Saturday morning at 5:30am!

It was over 3 weeks after we got the case complete.

October 2011: Met in Spain

2012-2014: Video chat + visas + visits and vacations = we made it through!

June 2014: Moved to Spain, got engaged 

December 31, 2015: got married

April 20, 2016: sent I130 package

May 2, 2016: package received in Chicago Lockbox - - - 12 days for delivery!! Don't use TNT couriers!! 

May 2nd or 5th, 2016: email NOA1... accepted and sent to.... NEBRASKA 

And now.... breeeeeeathe..... be like water my friend....

October 26th, 2016: NOA2 [We had waited almost 6 months. Received notification from the phone app, never got an email.]

November 9th 2016: USCIS sent the petition to NVC (app notification) [waited 2 weeks after approval for this]

November 25th 2016: NVC received and created account for our petition [waited 16 days after USCIS sent it, for NVC to acknowledge receipt]

Dec 1st 2016: Chose agent online DS261 [a few days later than it could've been since the above NVC email went to SPAM!]

Dec 6th 2016: Case available for paying fees. That was fast, I think! 5 days!

Took a long time to get package out because... life... and husband's family in Morocco had to travel to get police document.

Feb 20th 2017: Scan date at NVC, received weird email.

April 28th 2017: CHECKLIST. Moroccans are required to send a Court Report regardless of Police Record status. My husband had to go back to Morocco to get it in person. Also, NVC wants a 2016 tax return now that is 2017. My bad.

September 15th 2017: 2nd Scan Date at NVC. Sent for document review October 20th.

Nov 10th 2017: Email requesting document be brought to interview. Will schedule interview.

Case complete date??: TBD :clock:.... November 8th!!

Interview date : January 18, 2018!!           Result: Administrative Processing      :mellow:

Embassy called for new medical last week of August. New Medical Sept 10.

Visa ISSUED September 14, 2018. :blink:

You dont have to get a police certificate for time lived in the US...this  is taken care of by the background, FBI, name checks etc done by USCIS and  NVC during the process.. 

You also don't need to travel to your home state. 

My husband got his in CDJ and he is from Guadalajara.

So for anyone who know my husband's situation. He has been in CDJ for 2 weeks waiting for his passport.

He has not gotten any updates.

He just went to ask at an information window at the consulate and they told him it is taking 3 weeks not 1-2 weeks like they said. But there is people he knows who had their appointment after he did and they got it 2 days later. 

We shall keep on waiting.
