We arrive in Juarez Sunday the 23rd..we flew to el paso, Texas and cross over the bridge by foot where we were met by the gentleman who was renting out a room for us at his house he only he charged us $25 a day and we gave him $100 for gas money since he drove us everywhere we wanted to go...early Monday morning we had my husband's medical at 6am he went in got his documents checked and got his wristband he was moved to a next set of chairs where they did an eye test after they moved him to another set of chairs one of the clinic staff members escorted them to the next building I was able to come along...there they drew blood first then they sent them to the x-ray tech and to an exam room they checked for tattoos and asked to drop his undies to the floor they turn off the lights and light you with a UV light to check for things that can't be seen in regular light...then they ask you to get dressed and go on to the vaccines it varies by age group my husband is in the 31 to 50 so he got 3 shots...they sent him to see the psychologist so we were there till 930 they told him to come back at 2 to pick up his results we paid $380 total.... we went to have breakfasts at Los tomates which is right next to la clínica it was gross extremely salty and it took forever to get our food...we had his fingerprints at 420 so we hung around the area went to the mall across the street they don't open the stores till 11 bit it's nice and cool in there while you wait at 130 we went back for his results and after we walked over to his fingerprints we sat outside waiting for his time to appear on the board he was in and out in 25 mins on Wednesday the 26th was his interview we got there at 8 even though his appt was at 915 I waited with him in the sala de espera until his group was called to walk over to the consulate I walked with him over until he went inside...I waited in the waiting area next to the entrance he was out by 925 it was so exciting even though he tried to trick me! I saw his green approval notice and we were on our way, all they asked was when he cameven to the US how he crossed who petitioned for him what I did for a living, how many kids we had, when we got married, who was our Co-sponsors and if he had ever been back before that day ...we got his tracking # for his packet the next day and his packet was ready by 3 that same day we went to pick it up and we went to get it stamped at the port of entry we flew back home Saturday hope this helps any questions feel free to message me
