Hi all. I received my Spanish residency with EX24: la residencia temporal de familiar de ciudadano español inicial. I got it last year Around November 2025. I recently just got married in May. I already have a TIE card. So have anyone have gotten Spanish Citizenship with this method?

1. Do I have to update my TIE card to Married?

2. How long did the whole process take for you?

3. Do I need a lawyer or myself is fine?

4. Do I need to prove sufficient funds if they didn’t request it when I got the TIE with EX24?

5. I was born in China but I am a US citizen. I can’t get the original Chinese birth certificate but I can provide a Apostilled and translated U.S. naturalization certificate that proves my birth? I did this for my marriage since I didn’t have a birth certificate. Is it okay?

6. I’ve been out of the country total of 3 months since I’ve been granted residency. Is it fine? I’ll have to go back to the US again to do my FBI background check and naturalization certificate again.. totaling 5 months out of the country. Is that ok? 😅 It’ll be 1 year since I’ve gotten my residency in November this year 2026. Then it’ll be Year 2 starting from then. I’ll be okay go apply for citizenship in May.

I'm a US citizen, if i get married in a EU country do i need to file as married back home for my taxes in the US or can i just put single since it has nothing to do with it?

Did my taxes April 30th and IRS was supposed to withdraw electronically from my account but I still haven’t gotten the deduction on my checking? Should I be worried

It passed the black light test and certificate check but the text on the left gojo card is thicker than the mew one.. why?

To give context: I bought a trading course that was supposed to be a lifetime but I lost access after 2 years.. I emailed the guy and messaged on Snapchat and Instagram and eventually got blocked. My info wasn’t in the database anymore…

It was lifetime access..

I paid through PayPal with my Bank of America credit card

Hey, I’m leaving May 17th for my flight and I don’t think there’s enough time to do my visa here in the states… I do have residency in another country, could I do it there if I cancel the application here? Does it affect anything??

I submitted April 27 and on Thursday night it said rejected and to be modified because I didn’t fill out my job position duty… now it says application date 30th.. do I have time to do it? Literally 10 business days only. I can’t extend my flight.

So context is I already have a flight from Los Angeles to France on May 17th and I sent in my application a couple of days ago but it’s still in preliminary. I need the visa done asap bc I was going to go from France to China…

They’re asking for a flight as proof if I want it for emergency or proof of an ill relative and proof of relationship..

Can I just explain that I’ll leave to France and already have my ticket to show them? What do I do..
