contents The preparation of a telescope observation time proposal is a recurring activity in observational astronomy. It is a necessary investment of time and effort to obtain data to advance a research topic. Therefore, the success of an observation proposal is a condition for progress in observational research. This guide was created to offer a straightforward, practical, and comprehensive resource for applicants who are preparing a Gemini Observatory proposal. It reviews the fundamentals of an observation proposal, including its content and evaluation criteria, to help applicants organize their submissions effectively and improve specific aspects of their presentations. This manuscript is inspired by the recommendations of the User Advisory Council established in the documents ''Criterios de evaluación de propuestas por parte del NTAC'' (National Time Allocation Committee), ''Consideraciones básicas para la presentación de propuestas Gemini'', and in experiences of members of the NTAC.
