Ciudad Juarez Consulate - Priority Appointments?

[abrahambueno 14]

I saw recently on the appointment website that you can schedule an ASC appointment, however you cannot schedule an interview appointment at Ciudad Juarez. Even though the Embassies and Consulates are closed, I kind of want to reserve an "early" ASC appointment now. However, I wonder if Ciudad Juarez will automatically assign priority dates to applicants who had appointments in late March and early April, but were sadly canceled due to COVID-19. I'm up in the air because on the email we all received if your appointment got canceled, it stated that we did not need to take any action on our part and that the Consulate would reach back to us with more information. I sent a contact form to the Consulate today asking if they have any timeline yet on opening back up, since I heard London is opening theirs back up in early May, and then also asked them about priority appointments. Hope to hear back soon! 

 

 

My fiance's K-1 Visa interview date was April 2, 2020.

I was just given a generic answer of what's going on right now and how they would contact us when more information is available.

Don't do ASC/medical until you have an interview secured.  The medical is only good for 6 months.

 

You can check for appointments as openings do pop up from time to time.   We weren't K1 but I did that and was able to move up about 4 months.

I JUST RECEIVED AN EMAIL FROM THE MEXICO CITY MEDICAL CENTER SAYING WE CAN RESCHEDULE A MEDICAL APPOINTMENT!

Just remember that the medical is only good for 6 months.  It's easy to get medical done the day before the consulate in Juarez.
