Hello,

I'm retired living in the US. Am considering retirement in Arequipa Peru and would like to start with a 2 or 3 week visit in the Fall or early Spring of next year. If things go well I'd like to hire an Immigration Lawyer possibly while I'm there visiting. Does anyone have a reference for such in the Arequipa are? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

I have a great one up north, but not in Arequipa. Let me check with family.

My attorney does not know any in Arequipa so we are checking with wife's family that is there in the city.

Maybe you only think you need to find

an immigration attorney whose office is

located in or near Arequipa.

When I applied successfully for a visa for

Colombia, I hired an excellent law firm based

in Medellin even though I was far away

in Quindio throughout the application

process.

For the part of the process involving the

presentation of my USA passport in the

capital city, that was handled through the

mailing system and the moderately-priced

fee of the attorney's agent in Bogota.

@cccmedia You make a valid point. I thought a face to face initial meeting would be preferred, but I might need to be more practical and go with what works. Thanks for your response!

I am doing it myself and so far so good and has been surprisingly easy. If you're still in the States get your SS (if you're getting social security) benefits letter and your police record, get them apostilled, and bring them with you to Peru. That will simply the process even more. I've been doing it all online and over the phone, it's a bit time consuming but not difficult.
