residency questions
Helpful member
Hi
We were going to apply for residency on the basis that we spend more than 3 months in Spain (we're UK citizens). I'm now being told there's now no different between residency and fiscal residency - ie if we're resident that's it, we pay taxes in Spain and have to exchange driving licenses.
That puts us back in the 90 days from 180 category after December, not happy about it but we'll have to hope it changes in line with the UK 183 days a year.
Anyway the process raised a lot more questions for us - what happens to the legal status in the UK if we took residency here? in particular - contributions to pensions, access to NHS etc?
