El Salvador Embassy= Nightmare!
I am writing this review on behalf of a cousin that just went through the process of an F-2A visa in El Salvador; "Let me start by saying that I feel sorry for the people that are currently waiting for a visa or on interview appointment in El Salvador, this embassy is a nightmare, the people that work there are inefficient and incompetent, it seems like they don't know what they are doing or how to do their work. I had to go through 4 interviews and spent hundreds of dollars in phone calls to get my visa,I could not believe it. First interview, I was missing a document, second interview; the translations were not correct, could of have told me this in the first interview. Third interview, the documents were too old, past the 30 days allowed. Fourth interview, finally got my visa approval, after more than a year of waiting and going through interviews.
What a bureaucracy! this is not correct, the embassy in El Salvador need... read complete review

Complaining and stating the obvious wont help or change the fact that the government is inefficient. They arent good at what they do and they are always changing the rules and the prices. So bring $100 extra before you do the process and email them to cover your but before you go so that you can have proof that they are full of it. What really bugs me is that the embassy/consulate just changed the rules and didnt inform us or update it on their website in a timely maner so we showed up to our interview and got blindsided and to fix the whole thing its going to be another 3 months. MAKE SURE THAT YOU BRING A BIRTH CERTIFICATE ISSUED in the LAST 3 MONTHS this shouldnt be an issue because the NVC doesnt require it and because it doesnt prove a national security issue. a birth certificate is a birth certificate.
follow this link and your good also bring tons of effidence that your a couple eventhough you may have children together and did a cbra a birth abroad this same docu... read complete review

Let me separate our experience with USCIS and NVC from the embassy and make a quick comment on the former two. First of all, it would make sense if there were just one organization doing this. Secondly and perhaps more importantly, there really is no excuse for the whole process not being digital in this year, the year 2011. I know they have pilot programs going n oand it's great that the electronic payment option is currently available, but this is one of the last purely paper-based bureaucracies and having to submit duplicate documents should be unnecessary.
Regarding the embassy. I'm going to give them some slack and my "3" rating will frighteningly bring up their average. A friend of mine who works in another embassy told me that the consular unit is rather small in El Salvador; and it undoubtedly must be overwhelmed with applications since a quarter of the country already lives in the US. That said, I think those excuses only go so far. Part of the measure of your c... read complete review
