My wife and I are looking to retire to Gran Canaria, but i emailed the Spanish Embassy and  4 weeks now no reply and we cannot call them as now the phones are not serviced with people to answer them.  Can anyone recommend a trust worthy immigration company we can talk to?

I cant recommend anyone in particular but there is a huge amount of information about visa types and requirements, procedures, medical care, pensions and much more on the Facebook group After Brexit in Spain. Well worth a day reading through that before spending money on lawyers! Good luck, enjoy your rety.

Hello

We have just moved to Spain and we used Upsticks you can go on there website and book a free no obligation telephone call from Chris.

 They do this all the time and really know what is needed. The prosess of obtaining a visa is quite complicated and must be done with in a time limit miss one step and you will need to start all over again. 

Upsticks will make sure everthing will go smouthly they will take you thro every step and are very reasonably priced with all cost upfront with no hidden cost. 

I would highly recommend booking a call with them. 

They also have a YouTube channel just search Upsticks

No problem Paul happy to help. 

Just an after thought they explained not only what document to take to the high commission but what order and how to present. (ie use paper clips not staples or plastic folders ect) That meant we were in and out in 10 minutes. Outher people were having problems one lady said she had been back seven times. 

There is plenty of good advise on line that is worth reading but like said before only need to get one small thing wrong to cause problems.
