Ecuador Q&A Forum

I have a question about the Professional Visa.

My girlfriend has a Uni degree and I do not. We will be moving in October and would like to know if it is feasible to get a “Union Libre” and then make me a dependent on her Professional Visa?

Is this something that is easy to do ourselves or do you think a facilitator/lawyer would be required for something as tricky as this?

Also, I read that you need the 12X 6mo visa before you can get a professional visa. Would it be best to get the 12X in the states via mailing a consulate, or would it be easier/cheaper to just get it in Ecuador?

Thanks for your time!
