Everyone celebrates the job offer. Almost nobody tells you this part: not every offer automatically qualifies you to switch permits. 😬
For the contract to meet the requirements, you need to check:
📄 A signed contract that guarantees continuous employment during the authorization period.
💼 Legal working conditions — the terms of the contract must comply with current labor regulations.
💰 The salary — if the contract is part-time, the annual pay must be at least the minimum wage required for a full-time position.
🏢 The employer — they must be registered with Social Security, up to date with their tax and Social Security obligations, and have sufficient resources to meet the contract.
🎓 Your qualifications — you must have the legally required training or professional qualifications for the position, when applicable.
And there’s another important point: your job offer isn’t the only thing Extranjería looks at. The situation of the Spanish labor market can also affect the application.
