Thanks, Toon. Do you know which form it is we would have to fill in? Also, what level of funds are we talking about? Sorry, I find all of this pretty confusing! Read More

Thank you! This could be what we need, but can I just make sure I understand what you mean? You applied to the social insurance department as visitors rather than residents. To do this you filled in form A1. Immigration accepted this because they ... Read More

I asked an accountant to apply for social insurance. She has been back and forth with the department, trying to find out why they rejected our previous applications and what their requirements are. They have told her that they will not register us ... Read More

Thanks Toon, that's helpful. It seems like such a shame to have to pay to do something so basic though. We don't have SI numbers as the department hasn't replied to our application yet. It's been 6 weeks, I think. We've ... Read More

Current Residency Requirements by Toon
For the benefit of those people who dont know of the requirements when exercising EU FoM this is what you need to do if you wish to live in Cyprus (MEU1 temporary residency application) - other EU countries have very similar requirements that MUST ...

Hi Toon, Sorry to resurrect this old thread, but I've just had a thought. Will the migration department insist upon a minimum length of rental contract? I've been thinking about going for a 6 month contract if possible as we're not ... Read More
