I am an Ecuadorian, who studied and lived in Canada for many years. I have been a Visa Facilitator for over 7 years and have assisted more than two hundred and fifty Expats in obtaining their Visas, Temporary and Permanent, Cedulas, Translations, Health Insurance, housing and much more. These services are available as one fee package or individually. I own a car, so transportation is always included at no extra charge. I have always gotten my clients their Visas, even under the most difficult of circumstances, such as unreadable fingerprints for FBI reports. Have you moved to Ecuador without the required documents? Don’t worry, I can help. I offer free consultations, either by telephone, email or in person. I am at the Immigration office on a very regular basis, so I am knowledgeable about all recent changes in the law and am happy to share my knowledge with you.

What does Hogar de Esperanza do with your donations of clothing and household items? First and foremost, we give them away to those who are most in need of them. Great care is taken to make sure that they get exactly what they need. Any extra items are sold in our thrift shop, where all of the proceeds go back into directly supporting the foundation’s work of helping those in need.

Are you moving soon – perhaps across town or maybe even back home – and you have items that you can’t take with you? Do you wish you had someone to come carry away those items remaining after your moving sale, that you don’t know what to do with? Were you just spring-cleaning last week, and came across clothes in your closets that you no longer wanted? If you would like to do some incredible things with those items you no longer need or want, let us turn them into something valuable to help those in need.

We accept anything that you wish to donate, and put it to immediate use. You can come by the thrift shop, which is located at 8-28 Juan Montalvo y Mariscal Sucre, to drop off items Monday through Friday from 9 AM – 5:30 PM. We also do pick-ups of donations, so feel free to contact us to arrange a time. Thank you so much for your support of Hogar de Esperanza – we could not do any of this without you.

This weekend marked a huge milestone for FAAN (Fundacion Familia Amor Animal) as we broke ground on the new property in the mountains of Tarqui for the most modern animal shelter in not only Cuenca and Ecuador but South America!

The Foundation is asking community members and animal lovers to give whatever they can to support a $10,000 matching grant in which every donation will be doubled to help us build quickly and be able to move our dogs sooner rather than later with your contribution to our shelter construction fund.

This extraordinary grant means your $10 gift becomes $20, $50 becomes $100 and a generous $1,000 gift is doubled to $2,000.
That’s a double impact.

Thank you, Thank you! As a community, we raised funds last year to purchase the permanent land, (10 acres in Tarqui) so the most abused, abandoned and senior dogs will always have a beautiful sanctuary while they are waiting for their Forever Home.

You can join this “Change their Luck” match in honor of St. Patrick’s Day and the FAAN Circle of Benefactors through a credit card, secure cash pick-up by a FAAN volunteer in Cuenca, bank transfer, or check. US tax deductibility is available through our sister foundation, Amici Cannis.

Blessings to you and lots of Dog Love from FAAN. Together we’re making Cuenca known as “The City that Cares” about animal welfare through shelter, adoption, prevention, and education.

Alejandro is an honest, kind and hard working man who can help you with almost anything you are having trouble with. He first came to help us when our microwave broke and he made up a couple of thresholds we needed. He recently has sprayed our house for spiders and we haven’t seen one since. He cut our lawn which is large, bagged up the clippings and hauled it all away. All at great prices. We are very happy with him and have several other jobs for him. Please give him a call/email for whatever your fix-it needs may be.

Each company manages different parameters to approve or deny hospital credit. There are three scenarios:

1. One reason a hospital credit may be denied is if the surgery is related to a declared pre-existing condition (this can be appealed by your agent), or an undeclared pre-existing condition. Therefore, it is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to ensure that all pre-existing conditions have been declared at the time of filling out the form with your agent/broker.

2. In the case of an Emergency or Accident requiring surgery or hospitalization, here is the key: when asked about the payment method, the response should be “I HAVE PRIVATE MEDICAL INSURANCE”. IF YOUR ANSWER IS THAT PAYMENT IS BY CREDIT CARD, nothing can be done, and the client must pay the hospital first and then request reimbursement. It is important to inform your agent so they can work together with the hospital/clinic to initiate the process. In the event of an accident such as a fall, appendicitis, colitis, or any type of infection, IT MUST BE COVERED, and only the Deductible and Copayment must be paid.

3. For scheduled surgery, it is important that the surgeon fills out an insurer pre-approval form and provides your agent with examination results such as laboratory tests, X-rays, etc., to support the request. THE KEY IS TO DISCUSS WITH THE SURGEON AND ENSURE THEIR AGREEMENT TO USE THE INSURANCE. Otherwise, the insurer will cover hospital expenses, but payment must be made separately to the surgeon.

On the bustling roads of Ecuador, road safety is paramount. Unfortunately, traffic accidents are a harsh reality that can irreversibly impact lives. According to recent statistics, vehicle thefts in Ecuador have increased by 25% in the last year, and the death toll on roads remains alarmingly high, with an average of 20 fatalities per month.

As per data from the newspaper Primicias, in the first half of 2023 alone, there were 1,156 victims—a record high since 2019. Meanwhile, during the same period, there were 9,986 accidents, compared to 10,952 from January to June 2022 and over 12,000 in the same months of 2019. These are alarming figures, particularly considering the rise in crime rates in the last year, introducing new insecurities for your vehicle. Most of these events occurred without insurance coverage and responsibility of the event-causer.

Imagine Lucas’s story, an expatriate enjoying the beauty of Ecuador who was involved in an accident. One day, while driving towards the magnificent coastal landscapes, a reckless car collided with him. Stunned by the mishap, he watched as the responsible driver fled, leaving him with damages to his vehicle and injuries…continue reading

In the month of September of last year, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a resolution through which, as of September 1ST, Venezuelan citizens who are irregular in Ecuador, could register on the website estoyaqui.ec, and after that registration they could apply for a temporary visa.
The same resolution is provided for the citizens of the rest of the nationalities as of November 16th, 2022, the same registration can be made at the same website estoyaqui.ec, but unfortunately there is still not an option for obtaining any type of visa.

According to officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Azogues, the Quito offices are working to draw up a regulation that allows people of other nationalities that are not Venezuelans to obtain a visa, fulfilling the requirement of registration on the aforementioned site.
According to the Department of Migration, the registration of foreign citizens who are irregular in Ecuador can be done until August 31, 2023.
If you are irregular at the moment, go and register on the website estoyaqui.ec, this will be a requirement for your visa application, or if you want to leave Ecuador the registration certificate the Migration department provides you will be enough so that you can be exempt from any migratory penalty.
