I tried contacting consulates in other cities to see if they would accept mail in applications and they all said no, you have to use the consulate that covers the area you live. If it was as simple as getting it in 3 days, I would've done it a long time ago.
Oh I see. That makes sense. Mine was in Chicago and it was super easy. Too bad all of them are not that way.
