F.A.Q.
These are questions we've heard more than a few times. That's why we've answered them in advance for you.
We have a tradition: start with a free online call. From our office in Barcelona, we'll discuss your case and offer a tailored solution. Each case is unique, so our immigration experts will develop the best offer for you and your family.
If the case is urgent, let us know: we'll expedite and coordinate all the details within 24 hours.
We offer you the flexibility to choose: - Full one-time payment - 50% upfront, 50% later The first part of the payment must be made upon agreeing on the service package; the rest after the completion of the work. If you need any extra services while we’re working together, such as assistance with opening a bank account or finding accommodation, these can easily be included in the final payment.
We accept all forms of payment, including debit and credit cards, as well as bank transfers and PayPal.
It's possible. After the free consultation, however, you may realize that you need help with something specific.
To start, we recommend choosing one service, and adding additional ones as needed. We adapt our expertise to your specific case. At each stage, we will discuss, in advance, what assistance is needed. We prioritize flexibility and supporting you with your individual case, not just within the boundaries of a specific service package.
Of course! Share your story with the team in messages or during the consultation, and we will help you find the best solution. Even if we can't help directly, we will be able to point you in the right direction. Sometimes, that's all you need.
Our commercial proposals contain a detailed description of each service. This way, you know exactly what to expect. We also share the full terms of our agreements with clients in advance — it's important for you to review them before we start working.
- International expertise and local experience Our team has all the resources to make the move to Spain hassle-free and more comfortable. Each of us has moved at some point, so we understand all the challenges, risks, and concerns.
Dreamlife's immigration experts are familiar with the current context of Spanish bureaucracy and know how to work with documents and accounts efficiently. Our accumulated experience allows us to avoid mistakes and effectively help with each specific case.
- Individual approach Knowing general information is not enough; it's more important to apply expertise based on unique needs and requests. We offer individual solutions — that's our value.
- Comprehensive approach and additional services Relocation doesn't end with obtaining the necessary residency. Adapting to your new life has only begun, and we are here to help when you don't know who to turn to. Enrolling a child in school, finding the right doctor, resolving disputes with the landlord, and hundreds of other important details determine your comfort in a new country– we are here to help.
