Hi tigerfeet,

We took our Padrons as well and we were asked for them.  But the best(?) inconsistency was our passport copies.  Following feedback from Longjob, we took colour and black/white copies - the guy who dealt with me kept the colour copy and the one who dealt with my husband kept the black a...

I couldn't find this helpful thread this morning - I didn't realise how far back it was! - so I've given my feedback in a new post this afternoon.

Thanks for your help guys 👍

Kind regards, 

Kim

Hi Kimmy

Yes 1st timers - we did the first bit, ex20, wholly online and then booked the ex23 appointment online and printed the form.

Edit - we had our passport copy in B&W.

Hi. Exactly what documents did you have to scan online if any or do you have to take all documents with your second appointment as I will be submitting my first time residentia in the next couple of days. Just got my electronic certificate code from elche town hall.

Hi - we scanned images of;

1/ our Padron

2/ our joint bank account statement showing balance/ transactions over a 3 month period. These we got from our bank and they stamped them.

3/ Our passports - every page if you scan you can do 2 at a time. 

4/ Our private medical insurance certificates including sections where the insurance provide stamps "paid".

We used our HP scanner to scan in the images as it allows you to scan a single sheet or "add" additional pages where a document has multiple pages. Just be aware that the online system has a limit of 6mg per file you upload and so we reduced the resolution density on the passport as there are a lot of pages.

Review all of the scanned images for clarity and readability. Just be aware that the Spanish residency website is down at the moment and has been for a few days so you can't actually start the process for your ex20 online at the moment. 

If you are applying as; a pensioner with an S1, a self employed person or student then the documents you upload will differ. My wife and I applied as early retirees with sufficient means and private health insurance so the above represents our initial document upload - all in black and white.

In terms of the ex23 appointment you will need a copy of your passport again but only the 2 pages showing your photo we had black and white. My wife was also asked for a copy of her padron but I wasn't. Probably makes sense having a folder of multiple papers in case.

Once you do get to the EX23 stage it will become clearer what exactly you should take but if not shout out - don't forget the tiny photo's needed for the card you can get these at photography shops for around 6 euro for multiple copies.

Many thanks. Did you pay any fees with ex20 form on line With your initial online application and how or do you just pay when submitting ex23 form on second appointment.

Hi Iqbal - No fees with the ex20 - although this isn't particularly clear on the website. You do need to make a payment before you attend the Alicante for the ex23 part. Have you got a link to the form - think we found it on the immigration website - we completed it online before printing it and ...

...paying in our bank. Think it was 12 euro each.

Hi Iqbal,

The payment form is called the Modelo 790.  There are two versions, but if you're applying for the EX-23 at Alicante, you need to select "790 codigo 012" at this link:
