Unemployment and its effect on working residence permit

Post by nikitushu » Fri Oct 19, 2018 3:50 am

Imagine that a person gets his working residence permit for 4 years and then he becomes unemployed for several months or years. He is a member of a labour union (ex. PAM) and he is allowed to get unemployment allowances from that union (ex. up to 2 years). Will this somehow affect his working residence permit? Can it be possibly revoked?

Or you can just stay unemployed for 2 years and then work last 2 years before getting citizenship/permanent residence?

It can be revoked.

If Migri takes no action, yes.
