OBTAINING PERMENANT RESIDENCY IN POLAND...for an English person

Can any of our forum experts tell me what is required to have permenant residency in Poland....and does anyone known if this is needed if for example i wanted to get married in Poland to somebody from Ukraine....

And what would happen if i married her in Ukraine....and what if we wanted to visit the UK...?

I have lived in Poland for five years , if that is of any relavance.....

And finally....is there a legal limit to how many beans you can keep without a licence....? thank you...

I'm not an expert (as I'm Polish citizen by birth), but here are the results of the search I made:


excerpts (from Mazowiecki Urząd Wojewódzki):

Submitting the documents:
ONLY IN PERSON, at your local Urząd Wojewódzki (Voivodship Office - I'm not sure if it's Szczecin or Gdańsk for you as I don't know where exactly you live)

Right to the permanent residence for an EU citizen:

Required documents:

- 1 copy of the application (link to the PDF file - in 3 languages - PL, EN, FR) filled in IN POLISH (they suggest, however, submitting also 3 photocopies of the application for faster precedure)

- photocopy of your travel document or other document confirming your identity and citizenship (they suggest, AGAIN, submitting also 3 extra photocopies for faster precedure - lazy bastards, don't even bother to xerox the documents by themselves),

- 5 current photos, not dammaged, clear, colour with dimensions 4,5 cm x 3,5 cm, with your head not covered (no hats or other burkas), dark glasses not allowed, your left semi-profile should be on the photo and the left ear must be visible, the light on the photo must be uniform on all parts of your face.

- documents confirming a non-interrupted 5-year period of work,
- confirmation of temporary residence (if you have zameldowanie, a registered address, for a temporary/permanent residence)

Time for processing your application:
from 21 to 30 days

The division responsable for processing the application:
Wydział Spraw Cudzoziemców (Foreigners' Affairs Division/Department) at your local Urząd Wojewódzki

Fees:
30 zł payable to:
(find this info online with account number, and bring the original and probably also a photocopy, just in case - you'll have to make some photocopies of other documents anyway - of the transfer together with your application)
