Permanent Residence

I have such good news! Really it's wonderful news. We now officially have permanent residence in Croatia. What does this mean?

  • we don't have to carry our passports anymore
  • we never have to apply for our yearly visa again or any visa for that matter
  • we can now register our vehicle for the normal amount of time instead of having it registered according to when our visas go out.
  • we now have a Croatian ID like the nationals
  • we can be out of the country for more than 11 months
  • homeschooling will never be in questioned for us again

This is such a huge thing, we have prayed along with many of our family and friends and we're so thankful.

Praise the Lord!!

  4. Thanks Ladies, I was so excited to get this behind us.

    We're not citizens like Kelli but we have residence and that's what matters.

  8. What a blessing!!! Ryan is working on getting dual citizenship for many of the same reasons. How long did you have to work on it? The burocratic (spelling?) process here is a pain, and we've been running forms back and forth for about six months.
