I applied for visa 9: VI Amparo en ciudadanos Ecuadorianos, which is for married people! But they denied me! I haven´t got my resident yet!

No reason, they said: We can say yes and we can say no, and we say no, that was the answer!

Perhaps CEFAMM is a non-profit agency, which could mean that it is swamped with visa seekers hoping to get pro bono or free assistance.

If this applies .. you can either wait indefinitely for them to get around to your case .. or you can contact a paid attorney who might be able to assist you promptly.

This appears to be a case where you have a valid claim on a visa, except that a new and untested area of the law is delaying cases such as yours if you don't have a paid champion on your side.
