Frequently asked questions

Do I need to personally go to Spain to start the process of obtaining a residence permit for family reunification?

In the first stage, it is not necessary. Many documents can be submitted remotely, and personal presence may be required later for biometric data collection or receiving the final decision. We help you plan your trip in the most optimal way.

Which relatives can apply for residence through family reunification?

Most of the time, it concerns the spouse, minor children, and elderly parents. Spain may expand the list if you prove that the relative is dependent on you. We analyze each situation and provide recommendations.

Is it necessary to confirm income for family reunification?

Yes, in most cases, it is necessary to show that you have the means to support yourself and the invited relative. The amount may vary depending on the number of invited family members and local requirements. We help calculate the required income level.

What should be done if the relative does not have a foreign passport?

A foreign passport is one of the key requirements for submitting documents for a residence permit. If you don’t have it, you should first contact the consulate or passport authority of the country where the relative resides. We provide consultation on which documents are required to avoid rejection.

What are the chances of rejection in the family reunification process?

The probability of rejection is minimized when all requirements are met precisely and documents are submitted correctly. The most common reasons for rejection are related to missing documents or financial guarantees. Our team thoroughly checks every detail to avoid such situations.

How is the residence permit for family reunification renewed?

Usually, the renewal occurs under the same conditions that were presented when the permit was first obtained. It is necessary to re-confirm income, insurance coverage, and residence. We assist in gathering and submitting the document package in advance.

If my status in Spain changes, will it affect the family reunification process?

Yes, any changes in your status can affect the consideration of your application. If you receive a different category of residence permit or change jobs, it is important to notify the migration authorities in a timely manner. We provide recommendations to adapt the documents.

Is the right to medical care granted with a residence permit for family reunification?

In many regions of Spain, having a residence permit grants access to the public health system under certain conditions, such as registration at the place of residence and payment of contributions. We clarify everything individually.

Can family reunification be processed if the family lives in another city in Spain?

Yes, the place of residence may be different, but you need to confirm legal stay and suitable conditions for the whole family. We advise on how to submit the application if you and your relative are temporarily in different regions.

Can I apply for several relatives at the same time?

It is possible if you meet the financial requirements and can prove that you have sufficient housing conditions for the whole family. The specific requirements depend on the situation, and we help you complete everything correctly.

How long does the entire process take?

The deadlines depend on how quickly you gather the documents and the workload of the migration authorities. Usually, the whole process takes from a few weeks to several months. We are working to shorten the deadlines as much as possible.

Is it necessary to arrange private health insurance for family members?

This requirement is often present. Spain cares about ensuring that family members do not go without medical care. We will advise on which type of insurance is suitable and help you choose the best option.

What should I do if I do not have enough funds to prove my income?

Alternative guarantees can be considered, co-signers can be brought in, or additional documents proving financial stability can be provided. We will advise on which options can increase the chances of approval.

Is it possible to obtain a work permit with a residence permit for family reunification?

Depending on the type of residence permit and your current situation, family members may be eligible to work. Sometimes, it is necessary to submit an additional application. We clarify all the details and assist with obtaining the permit.

Is it mandatory to have permanent registration for obtaining a residence permit for family reunification?

It is necessary to confirm that there is a place of residence that meets the requirements for a family. This can be a rental or owned property. It is important to provide the rental agreement or property document. We verify all housing requirements before submission.

What should be done if the relative cannot be present in person at the consulate to submit the application?

In some cases, a power of attorney or submission of documents through a representative is allowed. However, in most cases, personal presence is required, especially for biometric procedures. We will guide you on how to correctly draft a power of attorney, if applicable.

Can a child go to school immediately after arrival?

Yes, in Spain, school-age children have the right to free education, regardless of the parents' status. It is only necessary to correctly complete the documents and register at the place of residence. We will explain how to do it.

What should I do if I change my address during the document review process?

It is important to notify the migration authorities about changes of residence to avoid missing important notifications. We prepare the relevant applications and track to ensure that the information is updated in time.
