"The amnesty will only apply to people who can demonstrate they arrived in Spain before January 1 this year, in a bid not to encourage a rush to Spain after the announcement was made."
"Irregular migrants will be permitted to claim a one-year temporary residence permit, provided they can prove five months' residence and demonstrate that they do not have a criminal record in Spain or elsewhere."
"Spain's government advocates the plan both because of the importance of migration to overall economic growth and because it should enable irregular migrants to seek official taxed employment and thus reduce the size of the untaxed shadow economy."
"Migration Minister Elma Saiz said migrants could apply in person starting April 20 and online on Thursday. The window will close on June 30."
Spain's left-leaning government has enacted an amnesty measure for unauthorized migrants, allowing those who arrived before January 1 to apply for temporary residence permits. The policy aims to reduce the shadow economy by enabling migrants to seek official employment. Applicants must prove five months of residence and a clean criminal record. The application period starts April 20 and ends June 30. The government anticipates a significant influx of applications, prompting calls for additional resources to manage the process effectively.
