NOVEDAD EN LA RESIDENCA DE INVERSORES O GOLDEN VISA DESDE EL 31 DE JULIO 2015

REFORMA A LA RESIDENCIA DE INVERSORES EN VIGOR DESDE EL 30 DE JULIO DE 2015

El pasado 30 de Julio de 2015, se publicó por fin la reforma a la Ley de Inversores que estábamos esperando desde hace tiempo.

Las novedades más destacadas son: 

1. A la renovación de la residencia  se concede residencia por 5 años( es decir después de los 2 primeros años) siempre que se mantengan los mismos requisitos de la inversión.    

2. En la solicitud se puede solicitar también residencia a los hijos mayores de edad siempre que no sean económicamente independiente y no tengan un nuevo núcleo familiar. También a los ascendientes si dependen económicamente de los hijos o  que  tengan alguna enfermedad que necesite de cuidados.

3.  Además ya no sólo se aplica a cónyuges sino que también recoge a “ persona con análoga relación de afectividad” por lo que también  se aplica  a parejas de hecho que lo acrediten.

4. Si el extranjero no ha formalizado la compra del inmueble o inmuebles pero   existe un precontrato con garantía en su cumplimiento por medio de arras u otro medio admitido en derecho formalizado en escritura pública, deberá presentar junto con el cumplimiento de los requisitos indicados en el artículo62.3, el precontrato con garantía junto con un certificado de una entidad financiera establecida en España en el que se constate que el solicitante dispone de un depósito bancario indisponible con la cantidad necesaria para la adquisición, cumpliendo el contrato comprometido, del inmueble o inmuebles indicados, incluyendo cargas e impuestos.

El importe del depósito sólo podrá ser utilizado para la compra final del inmueble o inmuebles indicados en el precontrato con garantía. En este supuesto, el interesado recibirá una autorización de residencia para inversores de duración máxima de 6 meses.

 

Si se acredita la compra efectiva del inmueble o inmuebles indicados, el  interesado podrá solicitar una autorización de residencia para inversores.

 

5.  Ventaja sobre otros países de Europa, es que  ya no exige para su renovación haber viajado a España al menos una vez durante el periodo autorizado para residir” de modo que no existirá obligación de visitar España ni un solo día para poder  renovar la residencia.
