I'm not great with forms, and the Schengen one was worse than any I've seen. The document checklist for Bulgaria was the single most useful bit — I stopped worrying about missing papers. Single entry granted exactly as I requested. I actually felt confident walking into the consulate — that's a first. The explanations of each field are short and human, not legalese. The interface is clean and doesn't bury things behind menus. Best money I've spent on admin in ages.
