Law / Karta Pobytu interview... what do they ask? [12]

It is an easy interview for couples who are genuinely married. Things they ask is usually about how you guys met how did you communicate, language of communication. When did your husband propose for marriage, date of engagement. About holidays together, Each others family members and there names, Description of house if he was at your place and where you live now, How did you guys spend your last weekend, Likes and dislikes. For you guys can be much easier as you are married for 3 years. You dont have to carry any documents or photos as they have already asked for what they need earlier. About interpretor depends from place to place, In Warsaw my friend took his brother in law, In Poznan & Szczecin they need professional interpretor. You need to confirm what they need exactly. They take interviews separately one by one and they want check if maximum number of your answers match with each other. Wish you best of luck :)

Law / Poland - some visa queries; admission cancellation (been studying in a Warsaw university) and school change [5]

Since you have changed the university and already have a valid visa it shouldnt be any problem. I would also advice you to ask the new university to send a official letter stating that they have accepted you as a student in their university because your previous university would already sent a letter informing that you are no more student in their university, it would be safe. Also please check that this university is recognized because at times admission for some private schools are not considered for extending your stay in Poland. I hope this information helps you. Cheers.

Law / I need to stay here in Poland to see my child. [18]

I am sorry to hear about your situation. I dont know about your story but it is not a easy decision for a women to do this unless it is some extreme situation. Anyways since your card is going to expire in a months time so I hope you have already applied for Karta Pobytu 45 days in advance. Divorce is not a easy procedure it takes time to get divorced and it is more complicated because you both will have a kid. Has she already applied for divorce? If no then you need to speak to her and explain her that kid needs father and mother both and life is not this easy how she thinks because she needs to leave all problem aside and think about kids future, I hope she will understand if not then you can get visa to complete your divorce. If you are working or studying you can also get your visa extension. I am not sure I read it somewhere that if you have a kid and if you are working then you can always get visa to stay and live in the country to be in touch with your kid and support your kid financially. I hope you sort out your things and everything be fine. Best of Luck

Law / Obtaining National VISA - Poland insurance requirements [9]

As per my knowledge people who are employed in a company are covered with medical insurance along with his family. When your husband is applies for visa type D it is possible that he gets 3 months visa because once he is in Poland he can apply for residence permit which will be for one year. I would recommend you to speak with the embassy and ask for how long they should take insurance for as husband would be working for company n will have medical insurance from the company.

It is true that insurance has to be taken for all the family members because the day when you all will arrive you wouldnt have insurance because paper work takes some time so it is always better to have insurance to be on safer side.

Law / Any good business ideas - what Poland needs? [114]

Good suggestion but I guess restaurant business is not this easy it requires a good cook and man power. Indian take away and delivery at home is good idea though.

Maybe import some products from India, some natural stuff which is hard to find in Poland and Europe.

Love / Marriage in Poland (civil ceremony,need advice on documents). Indian girl. [36]

@ju77
You can marry either in Poland or in India. In Poland it can be bit difficult because there are lot of paper work involved. Polish marriage office need a document stating that he is single and not married in India but this document is not issued by the Indian marriage office, so he needs to get document from Sąd rejonowy that he can get married without this document (This is long time consuming procedure1-3 months). He would need visa to enter Poland so you need to get zaproszenie for him and the visa. I would recommend you guys to get married in India which will take 1 month from the date of application for marriage. The documents are very simple for example passport and any other id proof which means 2 pieces of ID proof, Photographs, 3 witness and that all. After marriage is done there is long way to go to make all documents and for him to get residence card. Once you choose where you want get married I will give you detail info about the procedures for the particular country.

Law / HOW LONG DOES THE APPLICATION FOR KARTA POBYTU TAKE TO PROCESS IN POLAND! [36]


It takes minimum 45 days to get decision thats there standard procedure. I have got my 5 the residence card and it always took 45 days not more. Since you have applied for residence card you would get a confirmation letter from the office that they have received your application and your decision will be made on particular date. They try to make decision on the date mentioned on the letter but at times it can take longer. You guys will have interview and decision will be made after that, I have been lucky always to get friendly inspektor for my case and I have been always informed on the same day that how long I will get card for and it is positive. After decision it will take 3-5 weeks to get your residence card.

cheers

Law / HOW LONG DOES THE APPLICATION FOR KARTA POBYTU TAKE TO PROCESS IN POLAND! [36]

Unfortunately they dont give for 5 years like in another EU countries being spouse of EU national. They can give u for 1 or 2 years, One year they usually give to everyone if you apply for the first time and second time this can be for 2 years. Karta Pobytu is a term for residence card. Karta pobytu is given to everyone who is foreigner and living in Poland as a student, spouse, business or work.

In my case I always get for 1 year because i hardly stay in Poland I travel Poland - India 3-4 times in a year so thats why maybe they always give me 1 year but someone who is here working living they give 2 years after first card. If you live in Poland continuously for 3 years you can later be eligible for karta stalego pobytu (Permanent residence card) and eventually for passport.

I hope this helps.

There is lot of process involved in it. Let me brief you for the same.
1) First he needs to go to Indian embassy and request in writing that he needs a certificate that he is single and not married. In return Indian embassy will give in written stating that this certificate cant be issued from the embassy as In India we don't issue such certificate.

2) Once you get this from Indian embassy you need to get it translated in Polish and arrange for a lawyer and apply for they can exempt him from this document and he can get married in Urzad Stanu ciwilnego without this document. You guys will have an Interview before they can give you this document, I guess he doesnt speak polish so you need to arrange for a Polish-English Interpreter for the interview with Urzad. Hopefully they will issue this document and letter you guys can go with this to Urzad and apply for civil marriage, I guess rest you know how to go about :) Remeber you guys gonna pay for all these procedures and it can take from 1-3 months minimum.

Best of luck

It is not necessary that everyone will have first two card for one year. My friend for the first time got for 2 years and my second friend go second card for 2 years. It is upto the officer. There is no specific rules for the same.

Law / Poland - Temporary Residence card - Karta pobytu - required documents [142]

-----Correction--------
All Documents has to be translated in polish by a sworn translator and form has to be filled in polish language.
Karta pobytu has to be applied atleast 45 days before the expiry of your visa or Residence card.
Meldunek (Registration of house address in poland)
Health Insurance (specially in case of students it is a must)
Bank Account statment (Balance depends cant say in particular how much, Mainly for students)
Letter from college that you are student or Marriage certificate or Business/ Employment Documents
4 colour photographs 4,5cm x 3,5cm
PLN 340 has to be paid when submitting application
PLN 50 has to be paid when collecting karta pobytu

There is possibility to face an interview. Interview is made in Polish Language so people who can speak polish need to have a sworn Interpreter English-Polish. Usually decision is made within 45 days but in case if it takes longer you might get 3 months visa D category.

One application is made applicant recieves decision stating that he or she has been issuded karta pobytu for specified time limit and after that arround 15-20 days karta pobytu can be collected. This is general procedure. Documents can be needed more for different purpose of stay.

I hope this information is usefull and if you have some query please post here and I hope some or the other person can reply and help with queries :)

You can only travel


Depends if you have got a visa still valid while you are travelling and returning back to Poland. You need to be more specific in order to give u complete info.

Law / 'Karta Pobytu' & long-term visa [27]

IF someone has a visa still ideally has to apply for Karta Pobytu, I dont know what is long term visa according to you. Most of the people get not more then one year visa and they extend it by applying for karta pobytu. Karta pobytu for non EU nationals is usually not more then 2 years at a stretch provided is not eligible for Permanent residence card.

As per your quote I understand you and your spouse are non EU nationals. Your spouse has received visa for 120 days which is good enough to apply for Karta Pobytu. Usually they give residence visa type D which is minimum for 3 months and once he is in Poland he can apply for Karta pobytu (Residence card). Since he has a contract for 18 months he should be able to get Karta pobytu provided his company gives all the documents required by the office and he follows the correct procedure (one of the procedure: Apply for residence card minimum 45 days before the end of visa). I hope this helps.

Law / 'Karta Pobytu' & long-term visa [27]

Still not able to understand your question. Can you be more precise what exactly you want to know?

Law / Is it compulsory to have visa or karta pobytu to get marry in poland? [10]


You said you have got negative decision for karta pobytu but you have a red stamp. Can you be more precise? Since they gave you negative decision you have 10-15days to appeal against it. So if you appeal against it they would probably give you administrative visa which is for 3 months, If I am not wrong you also had visa valid when you got your decision.

I know few people who were not even legal and got married in Poland and that was shock for me. Valid visa or karta pobytu is asked by marriage office and is normal. Since you dont have visa so it means you cant travel to schengen countries or to Berlin. If nothing works for you then the last option for you is to speak to the foreigners office and explain your situation and probably ask you fiancee to accompany you and speak to someone head of the office, Again it will be totally against the discretion of the office if they can do something for you or no.

I hope you find solution for your problems and all goes well with you, Best of luck !!!!!!
