How to file
- Book the appointment first — «Cita Previa de Extranjería» is a separate service and slots are the usual bottleneck
- Pay the fee through «Pago de tasas» before the appointment where the procedure requires it
- Where the procedure allows it, submit the application and documents electronically through MERCURIO instead of attending in person
- Track the file with «Estado de tramitación»
- Use «Consultas dirigidas» to put a question to the provincial immigration office handling your file
- Employers recruiting under collective schemes use GECCO, which is a separate route from an individual application
