When applying for a process at a foreign consulate, it is important to keep deadlines in mind. Each consulate has its own rules and processes, so it is equally important to do your due diligence to make sure you are aware of all of the requirements before starting your application. Deadlines at consulates are typically firm, so if you miss it for any reason, the consulates are unlikely to make exceptions. In today’s article, we will discuss the importance of noting consular deadlines and the best way to find information.
Keeping a close eye on deadlines for consular applications is key. In the case of the Spanish consulates, when applying for citizenship through the LMD (Ley de Memoria Democrática), there is an October deadline for submitting the application. Additionally, each consulate has its own requirements for booking an appointment, and the rules must be followed.
The best place to obtain information regarding consular deadlines is the websites of the consulates themselves. There is varying information circulating on the Internet about the deadlines, and the best place to verify is with the source. If the consulate website does not specify, it is always best to contact the consulate in question by email and obtain a written response to clarify any doubts.
