Frequently asked questions

Can I work while waiting for my TIE renewal?
Yes, if you have an active work permit. The pending application certificate confirms that the process is ongoing and that you retain your current rights under the previous card. Always request this document when submitting your application.
What happens if my TIE has already expired?
You can renew it within 90 days of expiration without a penalty. Beyond that, the renewal becomes regularization and may involve an administrative procedure. If you are more than 90 days past the expiration date, consult with an immigration lawyer.
Can I travel abroad with my expired TIE?
No. You need a valid passport and a valid residence permit to enter Spain. Traveling with an expired card can cause problems when returning to Spain.
What documents do I need for family reunification renewal?
For family reunification, you also need: documentation from the Spanish or EU citizen who is reuniting you (ID/passport + joint residency certificate), and evidence of your familial connection (marriage certificate, family book).
How long does it take to resolve TIE renewal?
The legal timeframe is 3 months. In practice, depending on the Government Delegate's workload, resolution may be faster or slower. You can check your application status online with the reference number given at submission.
