Colombia Club Part II

[dakay ♥ 10]

i am so confused because he already has "certificado del das" is that the same thing as the pasado judicial and police report?

yeah, is the same. this is the information that you can read in the pckt 3:

"POLICE CERTIFICATES: A Colombian police certificate “Certificado Judicial” is required for all applicants who will be 18 years of age when they travel to the U.S. It may be obtained at any DAS office. Police certificates are also required from applicants who have lived in another country for more than 6 months since turning 16 years of age (except for the United States, Mexico, and Venezuela)."

Hi everyone!!!...

I see a few familiar faces and lots of new ones in this part II thread and I just wanted to check in to say Hi. We continue our journey as time has flown by and it's now time for lifting conditions. I see Charles and Lorena (parkpapa) recently posted and are in about the same time line as us...Hi Charles...

Anyway, for the newbie's...It's a long but worthwhile road you're traveling. My wife Yenifer has changed my life and I would do it all again 1000 times if I had to. I love her with all my heart. Have confidence that even through the rough times of your journey, it "will" be worth it in the end!!!

Godspeed to the Forum...

I believe that the Certificado de Migratorio must be picked up in Bogota.

You can get it at any DAS office but allow at least 2 weeks for delivery.

If you don't have that kind of time it can be had immediately in Bogota.

Scott,

Thanks for the info! There is so much info that isn't documented. If it wasn't for this website, then I would have to hire a lawyer.

I couldn't agree more Mark...we'd all be thousand$ in debt to lawyers without all of us VJ'ers helping one another.

Good luck my friend...

My fiancee went and was told to come back in 2-3 days..Nothing is immediate in Colombia..

Yeah, I second that Mark.

Nice to see you again Scott! I can't believe how time flies. Good luck with ROC, it's the easiest process so far.

Take care,

Thanks Diana!!!...How's it going with you guys?...Hope all is well.

As if all of you in Colombia Club didn't already know... Diana was, and still "is" one of the most valuable sources of info on the forum.

I second that.

hi Drew, If you decide to pick it up you can do it 2 days later, but first you have to call them it to check that already they have it (they do not call to notify). In the other forum several couples have received the passport 2 or 3 days later in their offices

Yakad, My fiancee called the Domesa office in Bogota and they told her sometimes it can take the consulate a week to sent the visa out to them then after that it is 2-3 days this can add 10 days to the wait/ But he said if you are nice to the consulate they could send it the same day.

Am I suppose to take a crash course on A$$ kissing in order to get this done? I would not be posting this here if it was not what was told to her exactly..Anybody experience this longer wait for the domesa to recieve the Passport.. Did you have to pucker up at the consulate to get them to move faster.? It's always something isn't it?????????

I second that.

I Third that. So is Yakad..

[Mononoke28 135]

Thanks guys, we're all here to help!

Well, as for the visa delivery... I haven't heard of too many people say they had to wait longer than 3 business days for their visa to be delivered by DOMESA. But like they said, it's not a sure thing and I haven't heard of the "a$$ kissing" technique either.

I think the best thing would be to give it around 5 business days just in case. That's what I would do anyway. If you get your visa delivered in 2-3 days after the interview, then you still have 2-3 days to enjoy Bogotá.

I have lived in Colombia for a few months now, and yes...you get used to waiting a long time. I would definitely take Diana's advice, schedule the return a few days after and enjoy Colombia! You will get a few more arepas, a few more empanadas, and a nice sopa de ajiaco bogotano Also, you won't run out of money with such a short stay, stay a little longer and you will feel like I feel now...broke! Who woulda thunk it? Bogota can definitely be EXPENSIVE. Anyways, good luck with all! I am hoping to bring my wife back through the DCF route, so we will see how all that goes
