Eu citizen/Korea fiancee plan to travel marrying & live in Malta

You normally apply for residency after three months.

She might have as you arent married and so do not have your rights - but you should be fine with the schengen they wont complain.

You can apply for residency as soon as you arrive, as long as its before the 3 months

I'd suggest getting married somewhere else first - you can get married in gibraltar after just 1 night stay in a hotel

I thought you applied after three months.

We renewed our residency in October and although the rules have always said to apply anytime within 3 months, they are now asking for proof by way of bills, receipts and/or bank statement to show you have been resident for 3 months!

hah that's interesting, first I hear it.  I went there recently - admittedly just for an address change - and they didn't even check any of the proof we took of our new address, asked me to write it down and accepted that at face value lol.

We were not asked on our original applications six years ago and in fact applied within 2 weeks of moving here, nor were we asked on two subsequent address changes.
I think they have now started requesting the information to make it easier to spot false applications which they have had quite a lot of apparantly.
