Panic in Benalmádena & Free Calendar Giveaway! WeeklyUpdate 43

This week’s update (43) is packed with info for anyone considering moving to Spain! We dive into some key visa and residency updates, including the good news that some visas from Manchester have been approved, and it seems they are finally on the move again! There are a few delays to be aware of, particularly with NLV renewals in Almeria and Granada and with booking appointments to register visas in the Granada area. We have some positive news about getting a Padron in Mazarron. Plus, after exchanging your old green card, we clear up some confusion around the withdrawal agreement permanent residency.

We answer your YouTube comments covering a wide range of topics, such as the best place to get gluten-free food, Chris from Upsticks experience with a broken arm and the importance of physio. We also touch on a few critical administrative topics, like NIE numbers, taxes, and the medical certificate for NLV visa renewals.

We share a crazy experience from the bank holiday weekend where a fire broke out at the Benaldena-based Polisnisia World Hotel! Thankfully, everyone was okay, and the local services were amazing. Finally, we’re doing a calendar giveaway, all for a good cause! The first five to comment “calendar” on the video will get one.

So, that’s a quick overview of this week’s video. Hit the LINK HERE to watch the full video!
