File Guarantees and Key Concepts

Favorable resolution and administrative silence

If after one year from filing the application there is no response, a negative administrative silence occurs. At this point, we recommend filing a judicial appeal to accelerate the decision.

Exams and Waivers (CCSE/DELE)

We evaluate whether you meet the requirements to request a Waiver of integration and language exams in specific duly accredited cases.

Responding to Requirements

An administrative Requirement must be addressed with absolute technical precision to avoid file closure or denial of your application.

Security in Custody

We supervise the technical validity of all documents included in your File to ensure the success of the administrative process.

Denial or administrative silence?

If your citizenship application has been denied or exceeded the legal deadline without response, we activate the judicial appeal pathway to accelerate the favorable resolution.
