    Hello,
    I and my family have residency through investment in Spain. All of us except one of my Sons already have valid residency Cards. My Son have the old expired card and also have the authorization for renovation of his residency Card till February, 2024 and his Card is ready to be picked up at the police station without an appointment. Will he be allowed to board the flight from a non Schengen country?

    Guidebook Spain is about to go down due to loss of free hosting, would you be interested in hosting the guides?

    There is a wealth of well researched info in them and they attract a fair bit of traffic so it would be a shame for them to be lost.

    I created a discussion asking if Spain had Job Centres like UK. Post appeared then disappeared before anyone could reply. Have I committed a forum crime?

    No, she just applied to register by phone and email. My lawyer pal did it on her behalf whilst registering her application for residency . This was done on Monday 21st December, less than three days before Christmas shutdown. She’s been dithering for months although living here for twenty years on and off. Her husband has an Irish passport and is non- resident. Neither speak any Spanish. .

    Thanks for that. Yes, she did apply to DGT but has heard nothing. So now she has her Justificacion, could she apply online to DGT?

    Did she actually apply, by which I mean did she have a medical, pay, & take the forms to tráfico?

    Did she just register with the DGT that she was going to change her licence?
    She'd need the justification of residencia in order to actually apply to change her licence iirc.

    Mnat thanks for that- just what I needed to hear!! I think you are right about the seperation thing- we had them in school short term in Ireland( we moved from NZ in April) and there were tears and no language problems so hopefully it will be a bit easier this time!! Thanks for the reassurance)

    Hi xabiachica!
    You seem to put up a lot of posts about schools so I have a few questions if you dont mind? We moved to Alicante from NZ in July. We have 4 children aged 6,4,2 and 7 months. We have enrolled the 6 and 4 year old in a local spanish school- we are here for 2 years and really hope the children pick up spanish quickly. I am having a few wobbles about putting them into the spanish system as they do not speak any spanish. Do you now if they will receive any help in a local school? We are getting some lessons for them but its going to take a while before they can understand much. I think I just need a bit of reassurance that other people have done it and its ok!! Did you put your children into spanish schools? Any advice greatly appreciated, Many Thanks
    Irene
