Permit C non Eu

Hello everyone,

I have been searching in the Forum, i could not find something that describe my situation.

my wife und I decided to divorce. In 4 Months i will be 5 years in Switzerland.

Will i be able to bekomme the Pemit C even we diverced? in case not, when will i be able to apply for C permit after the Divorce?

PS: i did an Ausbildung in Switzerland and work here.

Thanks in Advance

I doubt you’ll be able to apply for a C permit, since when you divorce your employer is going to have to apply for a new permit for you under the non-EU hiring criteria.

Getting a C permit while you’re married means one of the questions would be do you intend to stay married to which the answer is obviously no.

If your employer manages to get a new B permit for you, so long as you meet the requirements under VINTA for early applicants I guess as soon as you can.

Hello Medea

Thank you for your Reply, i am collecting the Papers for the VINTA Option, and i have talked with Persnal Büro where i work, and told them how is my Situation. i told them that i would like to apply for the C permit which is based on VINTA. so till now i am having all the papers so far.

Till now i am still Married since ( August 2017 ). But i apply earlier due to my (Einreisedatum in der Schweiz) is am April 2017, that means i can apply for C permit because in April 2022 will be 5 years. i appy 3 months before and that means in the begining of January i have the right to apply i think.

do you think it is possible to apply for C permit inJanuary or do i have to wait untill May because the Marriage date. ̈

Thanks for your Replies

I wish you all a good end of the year

It is based on how long you've lived in Switzerland, not how long you were married (unless you apply under family reunification, but you said that's no longer the case).
