Hi All,

I am a Canadian Citizen looking for work in Spain...

I am still here in Canada and giving myself until May to find a Job

But my Plan B is to come to Spain in May and enroll in a language school for 2-3 months... I already speak the language so I think 2-3 months should be a good start... and look for a Job while I am there?

But do I need a STUDY VISA for less than 3 months of studying?

Also any advice on finding jobs in Spain from all the way here in Canada?

THNAK YOU

You like that bold text eh? ;)

As a Canadian you get 90 days, so no, you don't need a student visa for less than 3 months.

You don't need a student visa for less than three months BUT if you want to look for work here in Spain you might as well get your student visa since it would legally allow you to work in Spain part-time- something that's very tricky to manage if you don't have a student visa!
