Residence Permit in Spain After Two Refusals: How to Legalise and Avoid a Ban

ВНЖ в Испании

Situation

The Ukrainian national received two residence permit refusals from the Oficina de Extranjería: incomplete documentation, translation errors, expired certificates. After the second refusal, he risked inclusion on the undesirable persons register. He had been in Spain 18+ months without valid status.

Solution

Our lawyers audited both refusals, identified subsanable and insubsanable defects. A full package was prepared: updated apostilled translations (max. 3 months), fresh empadronamiento, no-excess health insurance, and a substantiated brief citing Art. 31 LO 4/2000, RD 557/2011, and current case law. A lawyer personally accompanied the client at every appointment.

Result

Residencia temporal no lucrativa granted on the first resubmission. Client fully legalised. Family reunification application submitted. Total time from first consultation to permit: 7 weeks.
