Hello,

The divorce notifications should be sent to you both, not to only your wife, and your lawyer should make sure you are accordingly notified of any resolution related to the divorce. As I do not have the particulars of the case, I believe that your lawyer will be able to let you know what is the approximate duration of the process and when it should be finished.

Once you residency expires in June, you will have to apply for the residencia de larga duracion, under regimen comunitario, that is, that as you have been married for more than 3 years to an EU citizen and legally living in Spain for 5 years, you can apply for this type of residency ( form EX-19 ) and as you will be requested to provide with proof of income, the work contract will be of help.

Please feel free to contact me on patricia at Lawbird.com if you wish to discuss your particular case.

Regards,
