residence permit in the Russian Federation is an official identification with a photo, which are issued to foreign nationals or persons without citizenship.This document is proof of the right to permanent residence in Russia, the free crossing of borders and the right to work activities.If the residence permit issued to a person who has no nationality, the document can also serve to verify his identity.
residence permit issued in Russia for five years.If after this period the foreigner plans to continue living in the country, it is necessary to apply the appropriate content based on which a document may be extended for the same period.The law does not limit the number of allowed extensions of the residence permit.What is important is the time to apply for its renewal (no later than six months before the expiry of the residence permit).
also be borne in mind that since 2002 it became impossible to get a residence permit in the Russian Federation without a temporary residence permit.The only exception is a small group of foreigners and stateless persons who have a registration at the place of residence on the territory of Russia as of May 22, 2002.
I would like to further note that in any case it is not necessary to use the services of various mediators and organizations offering their services to accelerate the process of obtaining a residence permit.As a result, you can remain without money paid and without a passport, which will be removed the relevant authorities, as well as, of course, and without the necessary documents.
application for a residence permit in the Russian Federation a foreigner or a stateless person may be filed after one year from the date of the approval for temporary stay.This written application for a residence permit must be submitted to the competent authorities not later than six months before the expiry date of the document authorizing the temporary stay.In addition to the application, you will need to collect a lot of documents, a list which includes a passport, which has a mark on a temporary residence permit, photos, a standard form, a statement of the income or disability, certificate of birth of your child (if your child is agefrom 14 to 18 years, will need to consent to live in Russia), documents proving that you have housing in Russia, a certificate stating that the applicant and his family members are not infected with the HIV virus are not infectious and drug disorders, andother documents.If the documents are not written in Russian, they must be translated and notarized.
residence permit in the Russian Federation shall be issued within six months.
As a rule, a temporary residence permit, and then a residence permit, process those foreign citizens who are planning to in the future to get Russian citizenship.By the way, for the citizens of Kazakhstan, Belarus and Kyrgyzstan, there is a system of simplified acquisition of citizenship through which they can pass a five-year stay in Russia for a residence permit.In this case, after receiving the approval of temporary residence, they may have to go directly to the application for citizenship.
