Ley de la Memoria Democratica Processing Times

Hola a todos.

I am applying for citizenship through Ley de la Memoria Democratica at my consulate, in Chicago.

I finished gathering all my documents and I sent them to the consulate a few weeks ago, and I asked them for an estimate as to how long the process should take. They said they were very backed up and it could take 12 to 14 months to even get scheduled for an appointment to review the documents, at which point the process could take longer.

This surprises me, as posts in this subreddit claim the Chicago consulate took as little as 3 months to complete the whole process as early as last year.

How long did the process take you?
