Hi, does anyone still know if it's possible to get a NIE without applying in person i.e. by giving your lawyer power of attorney and notarised copies of your passport? I read here that it wasn't:

Also when researching the topic of NIEs I read that you could get one from the Tax Office and that this was easier than the Police Station. Why doesn't everyone go to the Tax Office in this case?

Thanks in advance for any current information.
