I would love to hear from anyone who has recent (2016/17) dealings with Residency application processed thru the San Francisco office.
The prime Questions I have off the top of my head are:
1) If you went in person to submit docs how long was the time period from appointment making to date of appointment?
2) how quick (assuming no hiccups) did you receive your approval?
3) Any hiccups or extreme ease on any items that surprised you
4) did you need to submit certified birth/marriage certs or apostilled?

Thank you so much, February is our 'lets get this started month' and if all goes as planned we should be arriving in June.

I can't speak from personal experience as I'm working through the DC consulate, but the family in the blog below worked through SFO about a year ago. I've emailed the blogger before and she has responded, so you could probably email her with specific questions.

From what I gather SFO is the only consulate that has families apply for one residence visa here then the rest of the family applies for family reunification once in Portugal. Anyway, good luck and hope this helps!
