After SEF Appointment

janicecallant

Hi, °µÍø½ûÇø's -

I hope that you all have had a blessed Easter weekend!

I finally have my SEF appointment, for my Golden Visa for which I applied in 2021.

My appointment is schedule for mid May, and I am somewhat nervous about it... don't know why. I believe I have all my duck's in a row, but I'm just not sure what to expect during the appointment? What is the discussion? What do I wear? Do I make small talk? Good grief... I sound like a school girl on a first date!


Also I want to know, after the appointment, are we able to leave the country? My business in the USA is going nuts right now, (which is great news) so I must get back to it. I know that I have read about the restrictions for people who must stay in country for some time, and I don't know if this will pertain to me or not??


Thanks in advance.

For Golden visa, the documents may be different, but it seems to me that the SEF procedures will be similar, but I am not sure...


Golden visa:


The beneficiaries of ARI / Golden Visa are entitled to:

• Residence visa waiver for entering Portugal;

• Living and working in Portugal, on condition that they stay in Portugal for a period of 7 or more days, in the first year, and 14 or more days, in the subsequent years;

• Visa exemption for travelling within the Schengen Area;

• Family reunification;

• Applying for permanent residence

• Applying for Portuguese citizenship, by naturalization.

I'm looking forward (and anxious)  to being back in PT soon, and will keep you posted as to the outcome of my appointment.
