Hi again, My wife and I will be moving in Oct of this year to Sax.
we are bringing our furniture with us and after talking to a few international mover we have come to find out that before our furniture are delivered we need to have a valid residentcy card. Can any one tell us if we can apply for one from Canada before we go or if we have to wait until we are in Spain to apply, how long does it take to get one.
I woould appreciate any information.

Hi Pico,
Do you have a valid visa or EU passport? You apply for your residency card after you're already living here in Spain, but it isn't necessary for anything anymore, as per EU law. A residency card does help you with some bureaucratic processes however.
Talk to them again, that makes no sense... what about an empadronamiento, would that work?
