Recently in Spain there have been some personnel changes at the migration authority, the Ministerio de Inclusión, Seguridad Social y Migraciones.

During the transition period at the ministry, it is possible that changes will take place in terms of certain administrative aspects of the application process � for example, applications for work and residence permits for highly-qualified workers (“PAC� in Spanish), intra-company transfers (ICT), and their dependent family members (amongst others) � and as such, it is possible that applicants (or those filing applications on their behalf) will experience variations in requirements in respect of certain usual application procedures.

ÀÖÓ㣨Leyu£©ÌåÓý¹ÙÍø strives to be up-to-date with any such changes and to keep our clients and readers of GMS Flash Alert duly informed.ÌýÌý

WHY THIS MATTERSÌý

Any change in criteria could potentially affect:

  • the preliminary analysis that is part of the assessment of the viability of cases,
  • the determination of the appropriate strategy for incorporating employees into Spain and at their employers, as well as
  • the consideration of feasible timelines for the review/approval process to be completed.

Employers and their employees (as well as their professional services advisers) may encounter difficulties if unexpected changes occur.Ìý They should be prepared for contingencies.Ìý
