Residence permit in France: how to get it?
The process of obtaining a permanent residence permit consists of several stages. It all depends on the category of persons planning to leave. There is a category of persons who can declare their intention to obtain the right to permanent residence in France immediately after entering the country. These are parents and children of citizens of this state who are financially dependent on them. Refugees who have an approved decision on granting temporary protection or asylum can also apply for the relevant status.
Another category is persons who have lived in France for at least 3 years. It includes spouses of citizens of this state, persons who arrived under the family reunification program, etc.
If you have a work, family or business visa, after 5 years you have the right to permanent residence. In any case, the lawyers of our law firm will help you to draw up all the necessary documents, regardless of the available grounds.
