Applying for citizenship via email

[FLEggs]

Thanks to Nikad and all others that have contributed to this thread. Here is a summary of the steps that are necessary to apply for citizenship, as far as I understand them. Please let me know what I am missing or what I have wrong

Step 1; Go to Talcahuano 550, Planta Baja, Oficina 2083 and get a copy of an instruction sheet and one that must be filled out in handwriting (el formulario), with your personal information.

Step 2: Send all necessary docs via email with two attachments in pdf format to the following address: [email protected]

1er. ARCHIVO (tendrá el formulario).

2do. ARCHIVO (tendrá: DNI o pasaporte- Certificado de domicilio de la Policía vigencia cinco días- y por último su partida de nacimiento con APOSTILLA DE LA HAYA.

Step 3: Once your email is received, it can take them anywhere from 5 or more days for them to reply to you. In the reply, they will ask you to hand deliver all the documents you sent in Step 2. They give you 5 days after their response to hand-deliver the documents you emailed to them. You need to take the physical documents for citizenship (just drop them off physically) to the Mesa Receptora de Escritos ubicada en Libertad 731 PB CABA, dentro del plazo de 5 días hábiles. Horario de 7.30 a 13.00 hs.

Step 4: Once you have dropped off your docs to Libertad 731, they are entered into their computer and a case number is assigned to you. This will allow you to follow your case progress online.

Step 5: At some point they will ask you to present proof of income.

Step 6? Once your physical documents for citizenship are accepted at the Ministerio de Justicia at Libertad 731, you will receive a notification from the court within 20 days. Question: Is this coming email notification the approval or denial decision from the judge? Or, is it simply notification that your solicitation has been accepted for review by the court, and that you will receive a future notification regarding a date and time to have an interview with the judge whose name is on the Caratula?

Court #5 is widely known to be the worst citizenship court currently, with the process dragging from 2-3 years, or even more at the moment to reach resolution. Other courts you can expect on average a bit over a year, though there are some courts in CABA that are lightning fast and issue a sentence in months.

Did they at any point ask for copies of proof of all of your addresses or do the police do that? To prove the 2 years of continuous living here.

I wanted to share my experience with the citizenship application process and see if anyone else has been in a similar situation. I've been assigned to Judge 4/Secretario 7, and I checked the status on the official site (http://scw.pjn.gov.ar). It currently says "en letra," and there's a letter stating:

"Previo a proveer lo que por ley corresponda, hágase saber al interesado que deberá acreditar dos años de permanencia ininterrumpida en el país, su actual situación migratoria vigente y sus medios de vida."

The thing is, it doesn't give any instructions on how to provide that information. I emailed the requested documents to [email protected] three weeks ago, but I haven't received any response, and the status hasn't changed.

Is this just how the process goes, or is there something more I should be doing? Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
