Is it possible to submit an application for temporary residence for children for learning purpose if the parents do not have a residence card yet?

Dodano: 31.10.2021

An application for a minor child must be submitted due to the stay with the parents. In this case, please remember that the funds from the parents' work are the main source of income for minor children, therefore the decision cannot be made until the parents legalize their stay and work in Poland.

An adult student / pupil should submit an application due to his / her education / studies. If an adult pupil / student depends on his parents financially, the permit may be granted after the parents have legalized their stay and work.

Can I work without a work permit, if I was granted a residence permit for a family member of a foreigner?

Dodano: 15.02.2020

It depends on conditions under which the permit was granted (i.e. which provisions were indicated in your decision). If you were granted a residence permit for family reunification (article 159 paragraph 1 of the Act on Foreigners of 12 December 2013) you can work without the need to obtain an additional work permit. If you were granted a residence permit on the basis of the article 187 par. 8 of the Act on Foreigners, in order to take up legal employment in Poland, you need a work permit. The legal basis of your permit can be found in the first section of your decision.
