Trying to do this alone from Santiago de Cuba was a lot harder than I expected. Getting the travel history section correct used to take me ages — it was quick here. I submitted on a Tuesday and had my passport back the following Monday. The interface is clean and doesn't bury things behind menus. Everything is laid out so even my mum could follow it, and she's 68. Made a confusing process feel manageable. Minor nitpick: I wish the dashboard loaded a bit faster.
