Although for many other Non Eu members this is not New, it is to the United Kingdom residents.
It will be time soon for some of you to start thinking about renewing your NLV, you can start to do this from 60 days before and 90 days after, it is always better to start getting a list together and organizing what you need for the Renewal. What is needed for the Renewal? Fortunately you do not need to go back to the country you first applied from, this time it is all done here in Spain. This is also the time to consider if you want to swap to a Self employed visa or if you have had a job offer and can get a sponsor for a work visa, maybe this time you can jump on to a family reunification visa, hopefully you have taken the time to research what is needed for either of these, in this article we will look at just at the renewal of the Non Lucrative, so again it will be no work allowed. First Stage You are going to present a full copy of your passport to prove that you have not left the country for more than 6 months for the first year and no more than 10 months in total (up to the fifth year) you have been resident here.
Not only all pages but if you are uploading, in a singular file and in PDF, for all documents to upload, it makes then neat and tidy and easily accessible for the Immigration to look through with ease.
Monetary Funds As with the initial Application you will need to show the immigration that you can still support you and your family if you are applying for them too. Monetary support, this time they will want to see 400% of the Iprem, this does change yearly but for this year it is €600 monthly and yearly €7200.00 at 100% so this will equal to €28,800 a year, for the 400% for one person and as
I have been told by various immigration officials , if you are able to support yourself with the savings, or a monthly pension as you know these are accepted, what they do say now that for the 3rd year if you have a pension or policy that is maturing or you are selling an asset and the funds will be available for the 3rd year, along with properties and other assets you hold these are also taken into consideration. Although i do not agree, the offices in most areas do want to see double the IPrem. If you are receiving a pension and it matches the Iprem or over and is a guaranteed amount then this will be accepted too as it was for the first application. Of course on the day it is at the discretion of the immigration if they decided to accept or not, so the more attractive your income looks, the better!
PLEASE NOTE, NOT ALL REGIONS ARE THE SAME AND I SUGGEST AN EMAIL TO YOUR IMMIGRATION FOR THEIR REQUISITES AND UP TO DATE INFORMATION
http://www.iprem.com.es/ Healthcare If you haven't been able to apply with the S1 at the first stage, you can for sure do it this time around, get this sorted now and ready for the submission. After a year of being in Spain you can apply for the convenio-especial, if you wish to go on the Spanish healthcare of course and the cost will be available on request of this at the local Tgss office or a quick look online at the moment it is €60 for under 65 and €157 for over, the link is an example for Valencia https://www.gva.es/es/inicio/procedimientos?id_proc=17044 Or as in the first year, your preferred healthcare provider, we now have our own in house Insurance who have access to over 35 insurers, please ask me for a referral, or email them at @VisaInsurancePlus.ExPay@gmail.com and use code Expay 0408
Police Report
This time around you will not need the Police report but please be aware any cautions or reports against you will be on record and will be looked into.
Medical Certificate
No need for the Medical Certificate this time either!
Other Necessary Documents
This time you will need to prove that you have indeed been in the country for more than 183 days, so it may be necessary to show a Tax return, invoices to show payments relating to your previous 6 months, such as utility payments, rents paid, bank statements with movements, not forgetting your residence starts from your TIE so you could have 2 split years.
I would suggest filing a tax return for the first year, please speak with me first to discuss as this can be beneficial to the approval of subsequent years,
They have recently been asking for a stamp upon entry for the initial stage
