D7 visa - Renewals and minimum stay requirements

/forum...

I was told that the rules were updated recently. Now it's more strict. I was told these are the current requirements https://imgur.com/a/2Yk5baCÌýCan you comment on that?

I don't comment on a link like that that is not official, has no reliable source, and I don't even know what that website is. If you have doubts, you should inform yourself properly with credible Portuguese entities or Portuguese lawyers and solicitors. You have this support here:

@JohnnyPTÌýI just found the source

I suppose "In the total period of validity of the authorization refers" doesn't refer to 1 year

Is the link showing up? ***

@JohnnyPTÌý

Link isn't showing up. So I'm copy pastingÌý

RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF A RESIDENCE PERMIT HOLDER

@JohnnyPTÌýYou're linking a general webpage that has no information about minimum presence requirements for residencies without saying anything relevant and addressing the actual law.Ìý

Did you even look at the source I linked?? I gave you the law article. Article 85: Cancelation of Residence Permits.

That law is from 2012, not a recent one. I don't understand the content of your posts...what do you want? That the law should be changed?.... I can't help you more...

@JohnnyPTÌý

The first link you commented (/forum/viewtopic.p … 42#5345092) has false information according to the law. Am I wrong?

The residence permit may also be
cancelled when the interested party, without reasonable motives, is absent from the Country:
a) Being the holder of a temporary residence permit, six consecutive months or eight interpolated
months, within the overall validity of the authorisation.

Your first temporary residence is valid for 2 years. SoÌýoverall validity of the authorisation refers to 2 years. If you leave Portugal forÌýsix consecutive months or eight interpolated months within 24 months period, your residence permit may be cancelled.

Your second temporary residence is valid for 3 years. SoÌýoverall validity of the authorisation refers to 3 years in this case. If you leave Portugal forÌýsix consecutive months or eight interpolated months within 36 months period, your residence permit may be cancelled.

You seem to think "overall validity of the authorisation" means 1 year.

Am I reading this wrong?Ìý

This doesn't apply to me because I plan on living in Portugal should I be fortunate enough to be approved for my D7, but as long as someone didn't leave the Schengen, wouldn't it be difficult to police the stay requirement? I could be wrong, but don't believe there are many, if any, passport checks going between Schengen countries?? idk
