Residence permit for a long-term resident of the EU
Dodano: 12.02.2020
If you are now staying in Poland on the basis of a temporary residence permit due to your studies and file an application for a long-term resident of the EU, the proceedings will not be initiated.
Remember also that in the future the period of stay in Poland due to studies will be counted only in half.

Yes, you can apply for long-term resident status, but we will investigate the reason for the employment gap and it could potentially lead to the denial of the permit.
Income should be stable and regular; therefore, we will examine your earnings on a monthly basis over a three-year timeframe.

Dodano: 12.02.2020
You do not meet the basic condition of a 5-year stay in Poland, because the stay associated with studies is counted only in half. Therefore, if you submit an application, we will refuse to grant you a long-term resident's residence permit.
Dodano: 12.02.2020
The permit is indefinite. The decision does not state the expiry date of the permit, but the residence card is issued for 5 years. Within 5 years, you apply for a new residence card.

When should I apply?
You should apply after you have been in Poland for at least 5 years.
You should apply for a residence permit in person before your current legal status expires (i.e. before your visa or residence card expires).
