Has anyone from Europe recently applied for residency. If so do you know what the income/pension level is in order to fulfil the criteria for residency. I do know for someone from the USA the minimum was 30K each which is rediculous. I have a pension but my hubby doesn't so as far as I am aware he would not be granted residency so I have no option but to return to the UK. Which I think is rediculous as long as I don't rely upon the state why the hell should it matter.

Hi Shaun,

My wife & I are considering a permanent move upon retirement. Regarding health insurance. My wife has an ongoing medical condition. Without being to personal can I ask, does the monthly payment that you mentioned, cover any such conditions.

Thank you

Regards

Rob.
