Regrouping parents or in-laws can become one of the most complex procedures. That is because the requirements to be met are quite strict.
The ascendants to be regrouped (parents or in-laws), must be over 65 years of age, you as a regrouper must be in charge of them, and there must be sufficient reason to regroup them (for example the need for intensive care due to their advanced age).
Again, to demonstrate economic dependence, it will be necessary to demonstrate that during the past months the regrouper has transferred money to the regrouped or has been in charge of his or her significant expenses.
But the regrouper must also meet certain requirements to be able to regroup his parents.
In this case it is required that you have a long-term or long-term EU card. That is, you must have resided a minimum of 5 years in Spain in order to bring your parents with you.
And which are the required documents? At the time of the application, you must provide your birth certificate to prove that they are indeed your parents.
Or, alternatively, if the in-laws are the ones being regrouped, the marriage certificate with your spouse and your couple’s birth certificate.
