Spain DCF For New Job while Unemployed

[OldSport 0]

My wife and I are living in Spain as Spanish residents. I'm a US citizen and currently unemployed, but if I received a job offer that required relocation back to the US would the consulate in Spain likely approve my wife for DCF? I would qualify as the financial sponsor based on assets

Contact the local embassy and see what they say. Short term job relocation has been successful for many, but it's up to the embassy to make the call at the end of the day.

Thanks @millefleur - should I wait until I have a job offer in hand? Or just ask for info

They will probably want to see proof of the new job to start the process, but you can reach out now and see what they say.

Yes, ask for info. That is what I did for mine. And it was great. The embassy was very easy to deal with and they answered all my questions. They know what they are doing very well. Get the offer letter as soon as possible though. And send your marriage certificate and your offer letter. That will kick start the process.
