Hello,
I am a US citizen married to a Spanish citizen. I got a NIE 3 years ago to buy a home, which we did. On the back of my NIE is says "Aspectos laborales o motivo de concesión - FAMILIAR CIUDADANO DE LA UNION"
During this time, I have continued working in the US so I never stayed in Spain for more than 2 months a year.
Due to semi-retirement, I now can spend more time in Spain - about 5 months each year. I want to stay for 4 months on my next trip. Do I need to get a visa in order to stay longer or is that covered by my NIE?
Also, I've never shown my NIE when entering Europe (usually through Frankfurt or Munich) because I've never stayed more than 60 days. Is that going to be a problem if I need to show it now?
Should I be presenting my NIE with my passport at the passport control booths at the airport in Germany?
Thanks.
