The residence and work authorization sequence still needs verification.

We have not yet confirmed this country’s road from residence to citizenship.
We have not yet confirmed how this route counts toward residence or citizenship.

Living there.

Time you must spend there: The program sets no minimum number of days. Renewal still expects it to be your home.
Tax: Where you become tax resident follows the days you spend there and where your home is. We map it for your family before you move.

We never file a tax return. We tell you what applies and brief the professional who does.
