I can count on the fingers of both hands the number of Ecuador visa applicants who post here and have gone through the permanent residency visa process in the last two years. So for all the hoopla Ecuador gets as a great place to emigrate to, either:
It has become a less great place
Or
fewer people are applying
Or
Fewer applicants are posting here
I don't know which.
Anybody in the process right now? Starting on the document journey? Have any current tips as to how the visa system is functioning in 2015? Changes, speed bumps, new bureaucracy demands, referrals or insights for the current visa process? Anyone?
All experience and input greatly appreciated. Current information seems to be lacking, it's been mighty quiet of new migrants around here.
Thanks for reading, and I await all the enthusiastic responses to pour in with success stories.
