Escribanias for the income letter requirement I am wondering about the part of the residency process involving escribanias. That is I'm talking about those required specialists we must find who handle our income evidence for the second time after our consulates has done the first part. Such as for example: How do we go about locating them ? How much in fees we should normally expect to be charged ? How much would their work quality vary from one to another ? How important is the work quality of an escribano ? (This in regards to some concerns about recent experiences having been mentioned (or implied) about the supposed added scrutiny or difficulties.) Are there some who appear better connected to know more clearly the precise expectations, or who know of the latest requirements and/or updates ? If our letter of income evidence prepared by our hired escribano is insufficient, is he still paid ? If yes or no, should we continue using his services, or do we seek out another and hope for better results ? On the other hand, maybe it's also our own responsibility to come up with better evidence to satisfy the sufficient income requirements. My experience is that many professionals here speak some degree of English. Curiously, I had a 30 year experienced licensed translator do two of my documents, yet really struggled to communicate in English. So obviously, this type of translator doesn't mean the person is also bilingual. Nor does it guarantee that those of us lacking in our Spanish skills could communicate at ease with with such translators. It kind of interesting to me. So this might also be worth asking: How important would it be that their English level be to managed any difficulties that might occur ? |
