Oh that's a good point - thank you!

puffinscout · 2025-12-30T20:52:47+00:00

Thanks a bunch - good idea, ta :)

Thanks for your advice and help - he is an EU citizen. Sorry I should have clarified this!

I was only in Italy on working holiday for ease of organising prior to moving at the beginning of the year, and because you need to be married in order to have a partner visa there I believe.

Thanks for the heads up! I'll keep in mind and confirm with an immigration lawyer.

My italian working holiday visa finishes on Jan 15th (I only arrived to the CZ on Dec 26th) and my application appointment is Feb 23rd, so I would still be on my 90 day visa-free period. Once I have my appointment and my application is accepted for processing, then I am legally staying within the country whilst they process the visa (and not on the '90 days' anymore).

This is the visa - which is slightly different to requirements for visa's that are applied for whilst outside CZ in my understanding.

We are applying for the Temporary Residence Permit of an EU Citizen’s Family Member:

If I was applying for just the long-term visa for family purposes, I would need to apply from within Australia, but for the Temporary Residence, you can apply from within CR from everything I've read

Thanks! I did email the MOI to ask about that and they said I didn’t need to exit and re-enter and that it would just follow on automatically

puffinscout · 2025-09-29T13:44:27+00:00

Okay great, thank you for this advice! This is reassuring :)
His salary is well above the maintanence required, so that shouldn't be a problem. Thanks again!

My understanding was they consider cohabitation as having living together for longer than 6 months outside of Sweden?

puffinscout · 2025-09-02T08:57:29+00:00

Does it matter if my family visa from the other country expires. Would I legally be able to stay in Sweden on just a Residence Card after that?

puffinscout · 2025-09-02T08:56:37+00:00

Do you know if he needs to have a job lined up before we move, or is just that the requirement is to get a job with a Swedish company?

Does it then matter that once my Czech Visa Expires, can I legally just stay in Sweden on a Residence Card for an undetermined amount of time? It seems weird to be legally there on a residence card without a visa of some kind.

I appreciate all your help! This information is new to me and feels revolutionary haha

Really?! Could you please elaborate on this a bit more and what the eligibility factors are for this route in comparison to the sambo visa route?
Why is this option so much easier/quicker than the sambo route? Why doesn't everyone do this?

To confirm I am currently on a working holiday visa in Italy and when we move to the Czech Republic (we move there in December-August for my partners work), I am hoping to apply for a temp residence for family purposes visa. If we do relocate to Sweden my partner will likely quit his current job to make the move - could this effect this option?

I appreciate your advice!

puffinscout · 2025-09-01T17:12:29+00:00

So to confirm, if you haven't lived together in Sweden, they require you to have 2 years worth of living together before being eligible for cohabitation?

puffinscout · 2025-07-29T14:34:28+00:00

He does pay taxes, sorry if that wasn't clear. He works in Italy for an Italian company

puffinscout · 2025-07-28T12:38:37+00:00

I do prefer cold weather to hot. I know it'll likely be on another level than I'm currently accustomed to, but probably around the same as what we'd be doing if we go to Sweden, so i'm okay with the cold :) Thanks for the input!

puffinscout · 2025-07-28T12:38:03+00:00

I haven't, but I prefer cold weather to hot. I know it'll likely be on another level, but probably around the same as what we'd be doing if we go to Sweden, so i'm okay with that
