Steps

1. Check that your training qualifies: full-time upper secondary, vocational grade C (levels 1 to 3), in-person compulsory adult education, or Public Employment Service training for hard-to-fill jobs.
2. Ask your regional government or town hall for the social integration report (informe de integración social).
3. Gather proof of the two years and criminal record certificates for the last five years.
4. File EX-10 and pay the fee on form 790, code 052.
5. Granted: you will have to prove you are doing the training. Read the decision carefully: your deadlines are in it.
