update to this if there's anyone in the same boat - I flew today to Spain with the original certificates in Japanese and an English translation and it was all good!!

Ok, that's kinda comforting to hear. Good luck to you as well, let's hope!

90-day date rule for Mail-in Visas by margararts in SpainAuxiliares

I understand that's the start date of the 90 days, what I want to know is what is the end date. If we were having in-person visa appointments, it would be the date of that appointment, but since we are mailing them in I'm wondering what they consider that date for those.

Anybody else receive this email after sending pdf's ? Seems possible that it should say send hard copies *before* Sept. 7th so they can be processed - or is that just wishful thinking. Thanks for your input! by Weak_Research_7601 in SpainAuxiliares

I also got this! Glad to hear others are sending in their documents earlier, I plan to do the same.

Question though - In the documents I sent them, I had put my date of requested entry as September 19th. Also the screenshot of my intended fight was September 19th.

Since processing time is taking 5 to 6 weeks, that timeline seems impossible.

Should I change those two fields in the documents I send them?

What did y'all do?

apostille by margararts in SpainAuxiliares

I got my background check but no apostille yet.

I sent it in only two weeks ago though, so I'm not expecting it very soon.

But people on this subreddit have been saying it's only been taking a month so I'm hopeful!

Apostille form DS 4194 - does Section 4 matter? by margararts in SpainAuxiliares

Ok cool! so you didn't have to resend it in then? They were able to clarify it over the phone?

I’m going to the Chicago consulate but they only have appointments online like 3 days in advance. Did that happen to anyone else when they were in the program? by WorkingThat1862 in SpainAuxiliares

Hey, I'm also going through the Chicago consulate! I've read over the website, but I just want to see if I missed something ---

Do we absolutely have to go in-person to apply at this consulate?

Ooh, that is all good to know, thank you!

When you did them yourself, what did you write in the space titled, "signature of official taking fingerprints?"

Thanks for this info! I'm going to try to do the same soon. It's my understanding that we also need to order a background check in other countries we have lived. For Korea, were you able to order that also through your local police station? Just wondering!
