OK, i´ve done a seach on this but can´t find any clear answers on my situation and i´m guessing that if i went to DAS(from past experence) that i wouldn´t be given a clear answer there either.
I have a 1 year student visa that will end in August, if i go home in August can i come back in October? I mean, does it count in the 6 months tourist quota? I don´t want to take a chance and arrive at the airport and be told that i´m not allowed back. I don´t think i can extend this type of visa just studying SPanish.
I was inicially going to go for the Investment visa but with the housing market in England so bad and the peso so good at the moment i´m going to have to sit on my hands and hope for the situation to change.
Any info would be great. Thanks

paulr says on Mar 26, 19:30: Thanks for the answer. SO the Student visa doesn´t count towards the 6 month tourist Quota? Life is like a ten-speed bicycle. Most of us have gears we never use. |

gorgonabob says on Mar 26, 19:49: yup. the student visa does not count towards the six month cuota, thats correct. you can spend six months in the country in any calender year on a general tourist entry visa..
