⏩ Have you submitted an application to the Administration and haven’t received a response?
Administrative silence is more common than it seems and can raise many questions. In our latest video, we explain what to do when the Administration does not respond within the established timeframe.
We cover key aspects such as:
✔️ When administrative silence applies and whether it is considered positive or negative.
✔️ Legal deadlines and what happens if no response is received.
✔️ Recommended actions, including appeals and claims.
Our advice:
🔹 Know your rights: Law 39/2015 obliges the Administration to respond.
🔹 Be patient, but set limits: Wait for the legal deadlines (1-3 months), but not indefinitely.
🔹 Act strategically:
✅ Contact them first via email.
✅ Use the Red Sara network to leave a formal record.
✅ If they do not respond, escalate the issue to higher authorities:
● Consular Inspection (if it’s a consulate).
● Ministry of the Interior (if it’s Immigration).
Knowing these details can make the difference between missing a procedure or effectively defending your rights. If you have ever faced this situation or want to be prepared, don’t miss the full video!
