To obtain a residence permit in Europe, as well as European passport in a legal way nowadays is simply. And it can be done in six months! If your grandparents or parents (at least one of them, as evidenced by documents) was a resident or a citizen of a European country, you can get a residence permit in that country through repatriation.
What is required for this?
First you need to file documents to the consulate and wait for a response. If it is positive, you will be opened a repatriate visa. Immediately after crossing the border you will be given a national passport.
Previously, you should first enter the country on a visa of any type and immediately apply for repatriation. While it is justified you could have stayed in the country. Today, the documents must be submitted exclusively in the place of residence, then wait for a response. Currently the only exceptions are those people who have already started the process in the country, as well as those who use several points at the same time, for example, for health condition, repatriation, refugee status.
How to become a repatriate?
One of the positive factors (but by no means mandatory) to the rapid recognition of you as a repatriate can become financial self-sufficiency. For example, you have a housing, as well as income on which you can live. If this is not available, in case of positive decision, you will be awarded compensation for relocation, assistance in finding employment. If necessary, the allowance will be granted.
Those people whose blood relatives have the nationality of the country easily get residence permit through repatriation (for example, you surname is Schultz, your parents are German, as indicated in the "nationality" field of your birth certificate").
Where to start?
The first step is to contact the consulate where you will be given a list of documents and all necessary forms. Practice shows that the presence of an attorney in dealing with any standard situations greatly reduces waiting times. As for solving complicated situations, legal counsel will be very important.
Package of documents
When requesting a residence permit in the European countries you need to present a standard package of documents – to fill in the form, police clearance certificate, photo, the document that confirms minimum of subsistence provision, the document that confirms availability of supposed place of residence, the document that the state duty is paid.
