Nicolas Burtey gave me the contact of Carlos Artiga, his immigration lawyer. Phone is +503 7885 7514. I explained him our case and he guided me through the process. My understanding and questions: The full process to naturalization has the following steps: - Obtaining a Residencia Temporal permit. - Spending one year under Residencia Temporal, which implies staying physically in El Salvador for nine months (may be reduced to 90 days with new law) - Requesting a Residencia Definitiva. - Spending one year with the Residencia Definitiva - Then apply for naturalización, which will take some months. Documentation required to begin requesting Residencia Temporal: - Report of having a clear criminal record - Proof of marriage and Sofía birth certificate Ways to obtain residencia temporal: - Employment contract with a Salvadorian company - Or starting a company in El Salvador (with significant revenue happening from customers in El Salvador) Things that are fuzzy in my mind: - During Residencia Definitiva, what are the requirements regarding physically staying in El Salvador? Is it possible to mostly not be there? - About obtaining the Residencia Temporal: - Is there really no way to get it while working and invoicing foreign companies outside El Salvador? - About the option of starting a company in El Salvador, and the requirement of having _some_ degree of revenue coming from local Salvadorian customers... where is the limit? How much should be local revenue, how much can be foreign revenue? I should talk with these guys next: https://www.abogados.com.sv/contactenos-abogados-el-salvador-bitcoin/
