The Immigration Office in Albacete
Modificación de las situaciones de las personas extranjeras en España is an authorisation, so it is decided at an Oficina de Extranjería under the Government Delegation — not at a police station. They are separate networks with separate appointment systems, and going to the wrong one is the most common wasted journey in Spanish immigration.
The ministry's page for Albacete does not name this procedure among the services it itemises for these offices. They are the province's Immigration Offices, which is where authorisations of this kind are decided, but ring ahead before travelling rather than relying on that.

What to take with you
- Official fee
- Processing fee for the permit being applied for. Where a student moves to an employed work permit, the employer pays it
- The qualification or certificate for your studiesFor the student route this is the requirement that opens it. Without the title or certificate awarded, the route is not available.
- Employment contract on the official modelMeeting article 74 — collective-agreement terms, continuous activity, start conditional on the permit taking effect.
- Employer's documentationTax identification, proof of representation for a company, and proof of the means to meet the contract. No employment-service certificate is needed: the labour-market test does not apply.
- For a self-employed change: the article 84 fileActivity requirements, qualification or proven experience, and proof that the planned investment is sufficient for the project.
- Proof of the date of expiry or of the awardThe filing window runs from whichever of the two applies, so the date has to be documented.
- For family members: income and housingSufficient economic means and adequate accommodation, plus proof they are living with you at the time of the application.

Before you travel to one of these
Almost all of these offices work by appointment only, booked through the electronic office of the public administration. Turning up without one generally means being turned away, however short the queue looks. Office assignments also change, so if what is here does not match what you are told on the phone, believe the phone and tell us.
