We are two 61 year olds and looking at retiring to the coast of Granada, we have a property so no rent or mortgage and have savings and a small private pension allowance coming in so no other income until retirement, and obviously not yet retired, we will be living a moderate life not big spenders and in a very Spanish atmosphere, I have previously lived in Spain and speak fluent Spanish and have 2 Spanish children as I was married to a local it was different but now I will be living in Spain again but with my English partner (he does not speak Spanish)as a foreigner and I was wondering how difficult would this move be for both of us legally and paperwork wise? Weird situation I know but would love some input thanks up front

Hi and a warm welcome to the Spanish forum on BE. Myself and Fred James are the moderators for the Spanish forums whilst BEVS moderates Europe. Moderators are there to ensure that the site runs smoothly within the rules of BE.
