Sep 19th 2019 : Visa interview questions at Monterrey, Mexico

**************************

So far I’ve found Monterrey pretty safe, language is an issue but you’ll get around.

Arrived Wednesday early morning, ASC appointment  was at Wednesday 12 noon – reached around 11.15am.

They let me in, fingerprints and picture was done within 10 mins. Out by 11.30am. You can keep your phone with you at this location as long as it’s switched off.

Main Consular appointment was at 9.30am today. Reached at 8.45am. Kept my phone at the locker outside the consulate for 40 pesos. Nobody was checking appointment time, there was a single line for everyone. I did observe that there was a huge separate line for what looked like local Mexican citizens(agricultural workers). I’ve never seen so many people (300+) at any consulate before. Anyway so first window I went to was for checking documents, second window was for fingerprinting. The third window after a long wait of 2 hours was for the actual interview.

VO took my documents, questions as follows:-

How long have you been living in the US

Do you have a Green Card application pending

What work do you do for your company

When is your return flight
