Any feedback you want to leave for our team (or) any suggestions for upcoming clients
Couple of suggestions, lessons learnt from my end:

I really struggled to get an appointment for Mx tourist visa in Bay Area for months. No one in the Mx consulate in San Jose picked calls, replied to the emails, didn’t allow walkins. I booked an incorrect appointment due to spanish language as well as was sent back. When booking an appointment for Mx tourist visa, please check the keyword “visas”. For people in SFO Bay Area applying for MX visa, I was told by Security guy that in SJ, they have only 1 slot for available for visa that opens up every Tuesday 12:00 pm. For SFO, the slot opens every Friday 12:00 pm. I managed to get a slot in sacramento on Friday for a date which was a day before my ASC appointment date, I really got lucky here 😇! Alternatively, try getting Canada or some other country visa if anyone is struggling like me. Canada process will take approx 3-4 weeks of time minimum .

For ASC and Consulate Appointment:

Bags are not allowed including sling bags with chains due to security check. No sanitizer, cosmetic, headphones, phones, smart watch. Prefer keeping a small wallet than slings!

Overall feedback:
The team is great with ample support. My cab was provided by Rodolfo, he was great!! He supported me in doing an early morning pickup from airport, to hotel checkin, keeping my valuables while i went for appointment and ofcourse all the translation at ASC/consulate from spanish to English as only few locals know English and all the instructions provided by staff/security was in spanish. When Rodolfo was not around, I had to ask random people to translate what instructions were being given by folks at ASC/consulate. So overall, getting an appointment at Mx consulate and US consulate was cumbersome for me, there was lot of chaos outside the ASC and consulate due to no signs and instructions being provided only in spanish but once you go inside, everything was very systematic and quick!! The team was great each time whenever I asked for assistance or suggestions throughout from starting with the process to the end, will definitely recommend them!!
