The easiest way is to marry an American. They can help you obtain a Temporary Resident Visa and then after a few years, if you qualify, you can obtain Permanent Residency. Nowadays, it is really dificult to obtain Visas for this country.

As a Romanian and because Romania is part of the EU, your wife may seek employment and work in Spain. As her spouse you should have no trouble following her to Spain and obtaining authorization to work there. I might advise that you contact the embassy of Spain for information rather than the embassy of Romania, since Spain is where you wish to go.
2 :
1st of all she needs in any case a work permit because since Romania is a new EU member citizens of this country are not allowed to work without permit unti 2011. Even if you are the husband you do not have the freedom to work in Spain. For you the rights of any other foreigner applies.

What is it like to work in Spain on a Visa

What is it like to work in Spain on a Visa?
My husband and I were toying around with the idea of moving to Spain at some point in the future. It would be in 5 years or so. Not sure if it would be permanent, but we thought it would be a good experience for our family. Do you still have to pay American taxes while living abroad? Do the Spanish generally accept foreigners into society on a work permit? How's cost of living? Thanks in advance for your replies.

I don't know because I've lived here all my life - but the Romainas that come here for Example have to pay their taxes on their wage to Spain, never back to Romania.. But I don't know about the US because it is not inside the E.U Yes, I don't think there is discrimnation, at least not in my region againts Americans The cost of living... =/ the minimum wage is 600€ a month but you must work 40 hours a week. But the average wage is under 19.000€ a year though. But it depends on the job. A word of advice we have almost 3 million people un-employed, but in 5+ years the Recession will be all but over, and there will be many jobs again (In my opinion) But I'd say make the move, I'm doing the Reverse North Spain - Florida in March/April, but I think for me it will be a large culture shock - You might find the same. But maybe try taking a long vacation, renting a house for a month in an area you like the most? But good luck !

If the USA has a double taxation agreement with Spain you should just pay in either country, but if there is no taxation treaty, then you may have to pay in both countries. You'll need to look into that. In some areas more especially right now, there is a distrust about taking jobs away from the Spanish workers. It depends on where you live and what you want to do. THe cost of living is cheaper here than the rest of Europe, but in 5 years time it may be different because of the exchange rates you may get at the time.
