How long have you been living in Spain?

Your title says 'Reunion'. Can you confirm whether you are living in Spain or the UK. In order for the Surinder Singh route to succeed, you would have to be living and working in Spain before re-locating to the UK with your family. See the information in Vinny's blue link.

The Surinder Singh won't work unless you've been living and working there very recently. Under UK Rules the Adult Dependent route has been virtually closed.
