S1 APPLICATION

Just got mine and it’s in English. My solicitor hasn’t said it has to be in Spanish. However it’s mostly applicable for people already receiving a pension. If you aren’t then you have to take insurance anyway as far as I’ve been told. Also you have to have lived in Spain for over three months and produce bank statements proving it. You will also need a Padrón from the town hall. Passport of course + photo. And annual income of €5,488 pp. Hope that’s useful. Good luck!

Thank you. I'm getting my pension and on the padron bank statements etc so I will have to  get in touch with my solicitor again .I didn't think it would be in Spanish. Fingers crossed for me want it sorted before Brexit 😆

So do I. I need it as I’ve finally run out of my COPD inhalation capsules. I bought a packet once and it cost €80!  So fingers crossed for us both. 

I'm looking at getting my residency sorted before the 31st October. I have been advised to use a translator instead of a solicitor as they are cheaper and can help with the Spanish paperwork. The one I'm going to use is in Los Alcazares. Maybe they can turn your S1 into Soanish for you? 

Thankyou goodbye advice .my solicitor is charging  €60 which isn't bad.but thankyou 

Good luck hope you get it sorted. I've just heard that my flight might be cancelled by a ryanair strike.one step forward 2 back.😆

Sorry predictive txt meant to say good advice 😊

I've heard Ryanair strikes on 23rd and 24th August 

There are a lot of dates in September as well if don't know whether to wait and see or just change my flight but that means changing car parking and car hire.be glad when we live in Spain
