Has anyone receiving a UK state pension used the S1 form when applying for a NVL.
There seems to be differing answers.
Some say private health insurance needs to be taken out ,some say the S1 form was sufficient.
It seems crazy that Private Health needs taking out (expensive ) then the application could be turned down.
I emailed the Consulate and the reply was that the S1 form(from UK in Newcastle) was sufficient. I will of course contact them again to make sure whoever responded gave the correct info)
Otherwise it's a chicken and egg situation if the S1 won't be accepted because you need the NLV to register it in Spain.
