Hello we live in France at the mo and will get European citizenship after UK leaves the eu in whatever circumstances as we qualify for French residency which I assume makes us eu citizens so my question is this If we move to Spain as residents of an eu country does the high proof of income still ...

...apply 

No, only to citizens outside the EU block. I’ve dual nationality & Irish citizenship through birthright and live in Spain for 6 months over the winter. I think when all is thrashed out the requirements won’t change much, Spain can’t afford to offload the Brits....

I have never been asked, as Spain is in Europe I can't see a problem. I still think the caravan is the best bet.iff you ever have a problem you can do what you like. I'm in Riga Latvia and is a nice place 35 Euro a week with WI FI electricatey gas is very cheap. And it's not cold yet

Qualifying for residency doesn't make you a citizen. 

For residency it's your nationality which is the determining factor.

If you want to apply for citizenship in Spain, you need to have lived here for ten years and to have passed the two tests relating to your application.

Hello Jim yes what I mean is we will be long term French residence which is part of Europe so we are not moving from a non European country like the uk 

We don’t need Visas from France to Spain So will our move from France to Spain be less painful than trying to move from england
