Family reunification (reagrupación familiar) is the procedure that allows a Spanish residency holder to bring their spouse, children and parents to Spain legally.
Spanish law defines a closed list of relatives eligible for reunification.
The applicant must hold legal residency, have sufficient income and suitable housing — all three are checked at the filing stage.
I assess eligibility, prepare the documents, file with Extranjería, support the visa application at the consulate and the subsequent TIE issuance in Spain.
Usually after renewing the first residency and proving suitable housing and income. In some categories (e.g. altamente cualificado) — right away.
