• Reduced deadlines to encourage the hiring of foreigners in the country of origin.
• Longer renewal period for Residence Cards (T.I.E.).
• Facilities for foreigners to obtain self-employment permits.
• Student visas will allow foreigners to work automatically, for longer hours and without geographical limitations.
• Elimination of the previous 3-year period required to modify a student visa to a work permit.
• Improvements in the requirements for family reunification are established.
• Major changes in labor and social roots.
• Facilities for family members of Spanish nationals to settle in Spain.
• Creation of the new figure of "arraigo" for training purposes.
