Hi Helen,

You need to apply at the INSS office in Torrevieja.  However, so many bureaucratic processes are currently being done by appointment only, because of Covid-19, and getting the appointment seems to be the most difficult part of the process - as your lawyer is finding with your Padron and TIE appointments.

This article may be helpful for you - it gives details of how to apply, depending on specific circumstances.
