Obtaining Spanish residence papers – We have previously touched on this topic many times, and we explained how it is possible to obtain a work contract so that the secret immigrant in Spain can regularize his legal status and what are the procedures and documents that he must complete so that his application file is in the best possible way.
Our topic today also talks about how to obtain Spanish residency papers, but not in the usual ways, that is, by living in Spain for 3 years, working, or getting married…
Rather, by recognizing the civil relationship, or as it is called in Spanish, “Pareja de hecho.”
But in accordance with the wishes of our esteemed followers, especially those who are abroad now and have no friend or nostalgia, and are exposed to daily suffering, the least we can help them with is to provide them with any information that may help them obtain Spanish residency papers as soon as possible.
Whoever wants to talk about what is permissible and what is forbidden, it is better for him to think about immigrating to Afghanistan or Saudi Arabia and leave Europe because it is a country of infidelity, according to his opinion.
1_ What do we mean by acknowledging the relationship?
In Spain, there is a legal relationship between a man and a woman called Pareja de hecho, which is a relationship somewhat similar to marriage, but the laws of marriage do not apply to it. Rather, its goal is to frame the relationship between a man and a woman and benefit from several advantages that exist in marriage, but without obligations.
2_ How can I benefit from this relationship to obtain Spanish residency papers?
If you are an illegal immigrant in Spain and you have not been able to get a job, and you have not succeeded in marrying a Spanish girl or one who resides there legally, or you have only lived in Spain for a few months (meaning you have not completed 3 years in Spain), we advise you to enter into a legal relationship with a girl. (Spanish, holds Spanish citizenship, or is from the European Union and lives in Spain).
When this relationship becomes legal, that is, when it is recognized, you, as a secret immigrant, will have the right to obtain Spanish residence papers, even if you do not have a job, and even if you have not lived for 3 years on Spanish soil.
3_ What are the conditions required to recognize this relationship?
There are uniform conditions in all Spanish regions and territories, and there are different conditions from one region to another, and we will point out any existing differences in the following article, so the conditions are as follows:
- The man and woman must be 18 years old.
- The partner must be Spanish (man or woman), from a European Union country, or a holder of Spanish nationality.
- The partner must have a job that earns an amount not less than the minimum wage, which is set at 700 euros.
- The clandestine immigrant must have 1,000 euros in his bank account.
- If the partner does not have a job, he can compensate for this with an amount of 10,000 euros in the bank.
- In Madrid, Barcelona and some other regions, they require proof that the man and woman entered into the relationship for a period of 12 months, through two witnesses (it is necessary that the two witnesses be present). But in the Basque Country, they do not require any witnesses or proof that they have been living together for 12 months.
- In some areas, they ask for a residence certificate proving that the man and woman have lived in the same house for a period of 6 months, but in the city of Bilbao, for example, they do not ask you for any proof. Once the man and woman agree to enter into this relationship, they can immediately obtain a joint residence certificate, if they are in an apartment. One.
4_ Well, all these conditions are met, so what is required of me as an illegal immigrant?
