NIE-- IN MURCIA

My girl friend has been offered a job in San Javier but she does not have a NIE we are moving out to spain in April what is the easiest/cheapest way for her to get a NIE.

As she is coming to live here she will need to apply for EU Citizen Registration, not NIE.  It is done at the Policia National Documentation office for the area where she will live.   The number she will get on the Registration Cert is the same as an NIE.   (It is the foreigner’s fiscal  ID number).

  She will need a letter form her prospective employer to prove the job offer.

This is what the police say you require to register on EU Citizens Register (Sometimes  incorrectly called Residencia)

OK thanks for info,  What about my situation i DONT t think i will be working ,( i do have a NIE ) so if i  can show  20k in a bank account,is that ok ? And the Health coverage during their period of residence WHAT is the equivalent  provided by the national system of health insurance. ?

If you stay, or intend to stay, 3 months or more permanently in Spain, or are in Spain for 183 days or more in 12 months, then  you will need to register too just like your GF.  When you pick up the application forms  just ask if the the cash in the bank is sufficient and how they want you to prove it.

I am not sure I am up to date on the health cover for workers. Hopefully someone can advise on that. 

 For non workers not retired, they will need I believe medical insurance cover. For those who are retired a form 121 from Newcastle will mean you can apply for free cover in Spain (the DHS pays an annual fee for each person).

when we recently bought our house in Los Alcazares we took the forms to the police station  in Categena and the NIE number was ready a week later. As we could only speak very little Spanish we found it easier although obviously more expensive to have someone take us and translate and pick the numbers up a week later as we had come home by then.

Also you need photocopies of your passports and I mean very page even if blank! that caught us out and not sure without our man who hunted down a photociper in the building it would have not become a major issue.
