Residency

Residency

Postby maisiesdad » Mon Jan 28, 2019 12:13 pm

We have been fiscally resident in France for 9 years and overwinter in our Spanish house for just less than 6 months each year. Our French house is on the market and we intend moving permanently to Spain when it sells.

Our S1 forms cover us for French medical care and for reasons of continuity mine needs to stay that way until we move permanently to Spain.

If UK is daft enough to exit the EU on 29/3 my query is whether having our main residence and being tax resident in another EU country will mean that we can transfer that residency from France to Spain. If not the alternative might be for my wife to apply for residency and for me to piggy back if that were possible.

I'm tempted to let it ride because it seems to me that the final choice will be between a May cobbled together, badly negotiated deal or another people's vote. Unless she manages to pull a rabbit out of the hat I'm hopeful that the people will decide to stay in this time.

Your S1 is valid throughout the EU and other EEA countries including the UK. If you don't have the originals then Newcastle can provide new ones.
Already had a thread on the way the UK and other EU countries are working to ensure the system stays the same even if the UK exits with no deal.
A case of watch this space.

Many thanks for the response. I am aware that the S1 is at present valid throughout the EU, further that it is necessary to provide evidence of health cover here in Spain.
Advice from Newcastle, which I believe to be accurate, is that they cannot provide an S1 to accompany my Residencia application until I can give a date when S1 coverage of my ongoing medical treatment in France ends. The problem is that the treatment will not end until after 29/3.
As you say its a case of watch this space. I will hunker down and hope that common sense prevails.

Thanks people, ermm, I have been going through my paperwork (masses) come across a form cedula de habitabilidad. This was issued in 2004 not sure if this has to be kept renewed?

Anyone, cheers once again. Pete.

Cedula de habitabilidad or sometimes called the Licence of First (or second) occupation.
Shows your property is fit for habitation.
It is valid for 5 years (used to be 10) but does not need renewing unless you are selling the property. An up to date one has to be in place before the sale but no need to do so before then.
