RENEWAL OF RESIDENCY: DEADLINES
By: Antonio Villena
To renew your residency you have some deadlines that you must take into account
It is important to pay attention to the deadlines you have for the renewal of your residency and we tell you what they are below.
Table of contents:
1. Deadline before the card expires:
It is very important to know the deadlines we have in the renewal processes, before the expiry of the card, normally two months before the renewal.
When we say that you can renew two months before, we mean calendar months. For example, if our card expires on the 21st of May, we can apply for renewal on the 21st or the 22nd of March, two calendar months before.
But we must bear in mind that we will not be able to have your fingerprints taken until the same day that the card expires, or even one day later, this is because the police computer system will prevent us, the police computer system prevents the official or the police officer from issuing or taking the fingerprints if the card has not expired, and this must be taken into account.
2. Deadline after the expiry of the card:
On the other hand, we must take into account the period we have after the expiry of the card, which is 90 days. This period is very important because these 90 days are considered as calendar days.
We must bear in mind that there are months that have 28 or 31 days, so the fact that we have a period of 90 days does not mean that we have 3 months. Therefore, these deadlines must be taken into account very carefully,
Other deadlines to take into account, in case we receive a request for more documentation. In addition, for these cases we have already published a previous article on how to legally extend the deadlines if we do not have time, I invite you to read that article which you may find very interesting.
