hello, I read your book and had one question about the Updated Migratory Movement Certificate. I was in Ecuador about five years ago with the purpose of getting a retirement visa but had to return abruptly to the USA. Will this show up on this document? (I have a new passport now). I plan to return to Cuenca if my initial forays have not screwed up the process.

HI Jay,
You’ll be fine, you are allowed one 90 day tourist visa per year and one 180 day visa extension per year. You’ll be entering the country with a new 90 day T-3 stamp in your passport.
Even if you overstayed your visa the last time you were here that resets after 9 months from the time you left the country to a clean slate.
You have nothing to worry about Jay.
Since you are coming to Cuenca you will need to apply for your visa in Azogues. It’s just a short 30 minute bus ride from Cuenca and they speak English. Cuenca Immigration no longer processes residency visas. Here’s the address…
