Hey fox_265,

Brother you must have got good experience of the city by now. I may also need help about the city and looking at your experience with the city I guess you might be the right person for me. :)

I am also planning to land in Katowice may be by last week of March. I am also targeting Tysiaclecia to get a flat on rent.

Since you are already putting up there could you please share your thoughts about the place ?
Is it safe to live there with family ?
How about the supermarkets, are they enough to meet the daily needs ?
How long does it take you to commute to IBM Office at Francuska ? Is it practically possible to commute by cycle or only the car/trams are good ?

Thanks in Advance :)

Law / Non-EU citizen Temporary Residence: Regular and stable income clause [5]

Hello All,

I need some information on the possibility of getting a temporary resident permit for Non-EU citizen, living in Poland on Dependant VISA.
I am from India and will be moving with my family to Poland by next month. |
My wife and kid have applied for the dependant visa at Embassy and will be travelling with me. they will be getting a VISA for first six months only (due to non availability of Travel insurance for more than 6 months). I have a job offer and the work permit from an organization in Poland.

Following are my questions :
1) Once we land in Poland how soon can we apply for resident permit (temporary) ?
2) What are the chances of getting the Temporary resident permit ?
3) Will it be applicable for the whole family or just for me, I mean will my wife and kid also get the temporary resident permit ?

4) Can they get the resident permit before the expiry date of their dependant VISA (in our case it will be six months) and live with me legally in Poland

A quick reply will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance :)
