I am living in santa pola and I have gor my NIE certificate. I want to get a residency certificate but not sure how to do this. There is a lot of conflicting advice. I have received my S1 form from the uk. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. Jackie.

Is the nearest place to get an appointment for my residency application in Alicante? Or do they do residency applications at the Town Hall building in Santa Pola?

You've obviously not yet had time to read my guides.

It's Alicante or nowhere, and town halls have never done residency.

I've read some of them now. Very helpful, thank you. As I currently don't have transport I'll be getting the bus when I get an appointment. Is it the building opposite the beach in alicante?

Hi, I have been completing my residency form but am a bit confused when I get to no. 4. Jim's guide gives explanation of Residencia Temporal but not Residencia Permanente. I am retired with a pension and not working. I'm not sure which part I should be completing. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Jackie.

...hanks. Jackie. 

I don't know which of the guides you've been looking at, but as someone who doesn't already have residency, you need to select the RESIDENCIA TEMPORAL option on the EX-20 and then No activo con recursos suficientes y seguro de enfermedad.
