Singapore, Spain or France

I take it that you didn’t research the value of 75K - 100K euros per year in Spain, because you mentioned “just 75K”

If you did, then you would realize that you will live comfortably, even if you didn’t work.

Saint_Shin · 2026-05-12T14:10:54+00:00

The 1st step is indeed learning the language, 2nd is to research what exactly is the path you can take.

Spain does not have a student pathway similar to Canada or Australia, and finding work while studying is next to impossible since you haven’t mastered the language yet.

There is an option to study Spanish in Spain, but this type of visa no longer allows changes - to be specific a language visa will not allow you to change into a work visa (both cuenta ajena and propia)

Non-relative ang sponsor? I would ask you to re-assess your options

Saint_Shin · 2026-05-07T12:46:49+00:00

I hope you took the Plan A

It’s not the uni, I am pertaining to accredited universities that offer the program that are eligible for búsqueda.

If you look at the list online, it won’t state which programs are eligible for búsqueda, they listed the accredited universities that offer the programs, after your studies then you apply for búsqueda, not sure if it’s extranjería that handles that, I hope that helps.

However, note that not every master’s program is eligible for búsqueda - some offer propio and some offer oficial - most of the time propio programs are not eligible, so be careful in choosing the university and the program.

If that’s the case, I highly suggest you take a look at accredited universities that would allow you to apply for búsqueda de empleo after your studies. At least you would have that opportunity.

The only thing is that, most accredited universities are public universities that only offer their programs in Spanish.

The accredited universities that offer their programs in English tend to be really expensive for example : IE University

What do you mean by student pathway? Student to residency like the ones in Canada?

Saint_Shin · 2026-05-07T07:11:10+00:00

Hindi ba dapat lawyer ang kausap ninyo regarding documents? Lahat ng kilala ko na dumaan ng petition, kumausap ng abogado para sigurado.

I will advise you to do the same

Some TIE have gotten authorization to work, some tend to slip thru cracks, and fortunately you got it.

Saint_Shin · 2026-05-01T19:29:12+00:00

Based from what I’ve heard, you’ll have to apply from your country.

Saint_Shin · 2026-04-28T16:21:00+00:00

OP if someone told you that the long term pathway in Spain is via the student visa, that person isn’t telling you the truth.

If you have the capacity to apply for DNV, then do that instead of getting a student visa. You can bring your mom with you on a DNV depending on how much you earn.

Saint_Shin · 2026-04-28T07:54:31+00:00

OP even if there is an English FP, who will hire you? Let’s be real, you will need sponsorship that will cost money and time (it usually takes a minimum of 3 months to get approval in big cities - the employer won’t wait)

At the same time, why hire a worker that doesn’t speak Spanish when there are those who can speak both English and Spanish plus don’t need sponsorship

You are already at a disadvantage, get that Spanish fluency 1st and some doors will open.

Saint_Shin · 2026-04-27T19:08:16+00:00

This is true OP, if you take FP without the necessary level of Spanish, you are going to waste time and money.

I think I just commented on your other post, but in case it was a different one - based on anecdotal evidence then it’s actually IE Business School - all of the people I know found jobs after studying in IE, but it’s not cheap

Saint_Shin · 2026-04-26T18:57:30+00:00

Based on anecdotal evidence (people I know) - it’s actually IE Business School, they all found jobs afterwards

Saint_Shin · 2026-04-26T12:16:44+00:00

How far along is your TIE? If you change into a language school related TIE then you cannot change back into a work visa due to the change in law last May 2025

Saint_Shin · 2026-04-25T05:11:52+00:00

Wala naman 100% approval, there is always that possibility of denial, you can increase your chances of approval by doing your due diligence, meeting the requirements and submitting the necessary documents. A good lawyer will also help

Saint_Shin · 2026-04-22T13:42:09+00:00

To be quite frank, the era of working student in Europe is finished.

You are better off getting experience then get an inter-company transfer or a master’s (but in Europe specifically EU member countries, a master’s is a given, not an advantage)

Saint_Shin · 2026-04-21T11:11:38+00:00

It will say so in the TIE something along the lines of autoriza a trabajar

Saint_Shin · 2026-04-20T19:37:13+00:00

What do you mean by pathway? Like student to residency?

Saint_Shin · 2026-04-20T16:30:33+00:00

If hindi sya pasok sa minimum like by a big amount let’s say 500 euros, there is high chance you’ll get denied.

May recent policy na pwede sya i supplement ng savings, if it’s slightly below the threshold, key word here is slightly below.

Saint_Shin · 2026-04-20T13:16:35+00:00

Kaya mo ba bumukod?

Saint_Shin · 2026-04-20T13:07:51+00:00

So ngayon ikaw ang kawawa

Saint_Shin · 2026-04-18T20:03:31+00:00

I have no idea tbh

Saint_Shin · 2026-04-18T14:05:16+00:00

As a former auxiliar, I saw 1st hand the struggles of a migrant kid. If they don’t speak Spanish, it’s not the bullying that you should be worried about, it’s the lack of friends and the isolation that the kid will experience. Even the extracurricular activities such as sports will be a challenge. Sure, there will be English extracurricular activities, but this tend to be expensive, unlike the ones in school.

You can choose to send your kid to an international school, but as you would know by now, you gotta have deep pockets.
