What is Social Roots Residency?
As we’ve mentioned in some of our previous posts, when we hear the word “arraigo” (roots), we should immediately associate it with residence permits granted under exceptional circumstances—meaning they are primarily intended for foreigners who are in an irregular situation in Spain.
In the case of arraigo social, this is no different. However, a key factor here is the continuous period of residence in Spain—whether the entire period was irregular or only became irregular at the time of applying.
The general requirement for applying for this permit is 2 years of continuous residence. Applicants can choose between two modalities: with a job offer or without a job offer but with sufficient financial means. In our specific case, our client chose the option with a job contract, which also required proving certain legal and tax-related aspects of the hiring company.

This case is particularly interesting because it was a way to “rescue” our client from falling into an irregular situation. Although she had maintained regular status for years, due to a mistake in handling her documentation on her own, she ended up needing to apply under this exceptional circumstance.
