TVR and WP applicants from Mexico -- WHATS GOING ON WITH THE STRIKE?

[marianasanroman]

Ive seen a lot of topics about permanent residence timelines and open work permits.. but if you're from Mexico and ure applying for your WP for the first time! pls let us know!!
i applied on April 16th, 2013 for a TVR and WP and the process is supposed to take 6-8 weeks... however, because of the strike, we haven't heard back from the Embassy...
we're trying to find out if someone has gotten their WP approved here in Mexico in the last few weeks!, after the strike started!! PLS, we're getting desperate here!!

I applied WP in Mexico in the end of Feb, and got WP visa in May 11. I got medical exam in 13 days after my documents were submitted online. And I got passport request 2 days after they received my medical report. They sent back my passport with visa only two day after they received it. The whole processing is very smooth and fast.

As you said, the strike has been making the processing very slow!

Good luck!

no, la oficina de visas si esta trabajando pero segun los rumores, solo un par de visa officers estan procesando las solicitudes.. TODAS las solicitudes estan siendo revisadas (trabajo, estudios, turismo, PR) SEGUN ellos.. aunq he buscado por todas partes y nadie ha recibido un permiso de trabajo desde junio... lo q si he visto, y puedes buscar otros topics en este foro, es q mucha gente ha recibido noticias de su recidencia permanente en Mexico... este es uno, mira:
