NIE Form - help on completion please!!

Hello!

Having searched through EOS for the answers and come up blank, we were hoping some kind person would shed some light on some questions on the NIE form.

We are planning to purchase a property in Spain to retire to, so duly downloaded both the form and the english equivalent from the web and all was going well until we reached the following:

1) DATOS PERSONALES DEL EXTRANJERO

Domincilio en Espana, en el pais de origen o de residencia legal (which translates to your full address - where you are resident)

Problem is we are still resident in the UK - so what address should we fill in?

4) DATOS DEL REPRESENTANTE LEGAL DEL SOLICITANTE, EN LOS CASOS DE EXCEPTUACION DE LA OBLIGACION DE PRESENTACION PERSONAL DE LA SOLICITUD D/D. (translates to full name of representative in spain)

DNI/NIE - do we have to fill in our solicitors DNI/NIE number?

Titul en base al cuai se ostenta la representacion:  - which translates to what?

5) DOMICILIO A EFFECTOS DE NOTIFICACIONES (which translates to full address in spain for notifcation purposes) - which address would this be?

So sorry to bother everyone about this, but have tried to telephone the spanish consulate in the UK with no success as I must be calling when they are too busy to answer the telephone.

Thank you very much for any advice given!

 I have sent you a private message debbieh7.

Some clarifications below in bold green:

1) DATOS PERSONALES DEL EXTRANJERO

Domincilio en Espana, en el pais de origen o de residencia legal (which translates to your full address - where you are resident)

It translates to: Address in Spain, or in the country of origin or the country you have your legal residency: You can then write there your address in the UK.

Problem is we are still resident in the UK - so what address should we fill in?

4) DATOS DEL REPRESENTANTE LEGAL DEL SOLICITANTE, EN LOS CASOS DE EXCEPTUACION DE LA OBLIGACION DE PRESENTACION PERSONAL DE LA SOLICITUD D/D. (translates to full name of representative in spain)

DNI/NIE - do we have to fill in our solicitors DNI/NIE number? Personal data of your solciitor: ( name, last names and DNI) if your solicitor is applying for your NIE number.

Titul en base al cuai se ostenta la representacion:  - which translates to what? Proxy Notary document which legitimates him to apply for the NIE number on your behalf.

5) DOMICILIO A EFFECTOS DE NOTIFICACIONES (which translates to full address in spain for notifcation purposes) - which address would this be? Your solicitor´s adress or any friend´s or club/ association in charge of your mail in Spain.

if not sorted pm me with uk email/ tel and will endeavour to send a complete done for your viewing

Thank you very much for your replies Maria and advisor - much appreciated!

Kind regards,
