UK, Ireland / I married a Pole, we live in the UK - eligibility for Polish citizenship? [15]

Wrong wrong wrong

You can get an polish citizenship if you married with a pole for 3 years

but you must live in poland for this 3 years and you must have had the temporary residence permit for 1 year then for 2 then you applied for an permanent then after that you can apply for the citizenship

Did you all got that ?

UK, Ireland / Polish 'exodus' grinds to halt! [6]

news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/8032788.stm

It is five years since EU enlargement brought a wave of Poles and other eastern European migrant workers to a Britain that was booming. But the recession has not resulted in a mass exodus.

In a conference room in a west London hotel, around 40-50 Poles have come to see a presentation by the mayor of Bydgoszcz, a town in central Poland.

Life / Daily comute from Warsaw to Lodz [14]

No I dont speak no Polish been too busy looking for work all the time to learn Polish

I can tell you no hard time in the UK can compare with Poland things here are hard on the job side of things

If you find a job the pay will be low rent is expensive if you don't need to make a living with what you make here then is ok I need to save up cash those days so ....

You can find jobs with no polish but you will need a second language then English
English is the working language of many places I worked but a second language is also need.

but as I said if you dont mind working for peanuts Welcome to Poland

Life / Daily comute from Warsaw to Lodz [14]

Hey cjjc I was wrong about your city sorry ... about the job

hospitality management that is a bit in what I would work on it if i take the job in Lodz well one of then I have other offer also that I would like more

The job is in support anyway I will see if the other offer work out I give you the details of this one .

Commuting from £ódź to Warsaw makes sense because in Warsaw earnings and cost of living is generally higher. But the other way round it doesn't make too much sense: lower earnings + more expensive accommodation.

Well I will try to get Warsaw salary for this job shit is I will have to pay lodz monthly bus pass and warsaw monthly bus pass plus the train monthly pass also all and all will go to around 600 zl a month for transport alone .

anyway this will be my last shoot after 2 years here the job thing is not working the pay still way too low !!!!!

Life / Daily comute from Warsaw to Lodz [14]

I see

I work in IT depends what you do... you can find a job thing is the pay is lousy ...
also helps if you can speak some other language then English ... Polish is not a must otherwise you want to sell kepaps or something

If you want some work I may can hook you up who know`s I may need someone to share a flat there or something in case the commute will be too harsh .

I was in your home town after the floods few years back did some work for the Met Police there getting their IT staff back on ...

I am not English tough ...

Life / Daily comute from Warsaw to Lodz [14]

Hello all of you out there ....

I want to know your thoughts of commuting daily from Warsaw to Lodz to work
I know some of the locals do that from Lodz to Warsaw.
I myself think is a bit of a pain but dont really want to move to Lodz so guess will have to take the trip there and back at least is just 1.5 hours now before was 3.something...

Any ideas how to kill time on the train and how early I have to wake up everyday to make to the office at 9

Thanks

News / Poland will take half a century to catch up with the West [240]

Poland will take half a century to catch up with the West

According to the latest data published by Eurostat, Poland will need 55 years to catch up with the standard of living in Germany.

In 2008, a Pole could afford only 55 percent of what an average EU citizen could. This is the worst result in the EU, with the exception of Romania and Bulgaria. The study shows that in 1997 the standard of living in Poland amounted to 47 percent of the EU average, meaning that Poland is catching up only 1 percent a year.

The data also reveals that one of the most significant factors hindering development is unemployment. The report states that only 57 percent of those aged up to 65 actually work.

USA, Canada / OBTAINING POLISH CITIZENSHIP (living in the USA). Petition documents? [28]

One must be married with a Pole and live in Poland for 3 years !!! not 2

and one must have the temporary residence permit first valid for 1 year then after that you apply for another one which is valid for 2 year after that you apply for a permanent one valid for life and then once you have that you can apply for a passport (citizenship) I know one must apply on the must 2 months after getting the permanent card how long take to the (citizenship) I dont know maybe few months
