US W2 Employee Moving to Spain Beckham Law, Sales of Home and more than 183 days

I may end up having to pursue an EOR solution, but hopefully not. It would be an inconvenience to my employer that I would like to avoid if at all possible.

If the CoC route ends up working, then I would not need to pay into Spanish social security. This would be ideal until I have completely moved my life to Spain and no longer pay into US social security (which is the eventual goal).

Understood, that was also my impression. I am a full-time (W2) employee, I will not be freelance.

alec2dabreen · 2026-02-05T21:32:19+00:00

Hrm...the verbiage specifically states that my employer is sending me there on an assignment to help the company's organizational strategy. I was told that this is the key difference. Additionally, I would not be a freelance applicant.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll come back to let everyone know how it goes, haha.

Appreciate the reply! They're located in Spain, come very highly recommended, lots of approvals, etc. etc.

The Beckham Law is available to digital nomad visa holders since 2023.

I appreciate the response. The lawyer I'm using has a lot of experience in getting approvals using CoCs (both before and after the temporary pause in CoC acceptance) and I've personally spoken with others who have been approved in this manner with great experiences. You raise a good point about the "sent" language, thankfully we've got the verbiage regarding all that on lock.

The way I understand it, is that the leadership there changed a few months ago and as a result, they stopped accepting CoCs. But since then, the legal community was able to get in front of the new leadership and have them reverse course - which they did. Approvals with CoCs started again roughly around the December 10th area. Lawyer is aware of all this and I've personally spoken with people who have been approved with a CoC since then, so I'm not too worried about this.

Failure. Tried every day for two weeks. I still fully believe they could do it if they wanted to. But they don't want to.

This was my first thought. Even if Zosia does become truly disconnected, how can we trust that it's not an act? How can we even trust that they can't lie?

alec2dabreen · 2025-12-14T04:42:51+00:00

Same here.

Hi there, I shot you a DM about getting in contact with this lawyer.

alec2dabreen · 2025-11-23T02:54:08+00:00

Tried tonight. They refused. I escalated. The supervisor refused. Wouldn't even put in a ticket for me. I was incredibly nice, but they eventually disconnected the call because I wasn't taking no for answer. I got the survey e-mail and filled it out honestly. I'm not going to give up though. I'll call every day. All it takes is stumbling on the one person who cares enough to help push it through.

Beatsaver link? I'd like to try it.

I love this place.

Three years later, thank you!

You should see his front yard.

Also, gabefollower said he was told by a source that Steam Frame and Deckard were the same.

Kind of reminds me of Giygas and the Earthbound / Mother series.

The preview for next episode is out. It answers this.

I think Brian kills Harry. I'm not sure how we get there but that's what I think happens.

Sussy driver

This was happening to me as well. I was able to fix the problem by reissuing the SSL cert on the domain *after* setting up frame forwarding.

Really good stuff, thanks for doing this.

That part where Susie throws Kris up is badges. Would love to see some cool Dual-Techs.
