What if loosing B permit with a child?

Visas, Permits, Passports and Naturalization

Good afternoon.

If I am living in Switzerland with B permit, and then I have a son who is born in Switzerland, what happens if I loose the job that allow me to have the B permit?

Should I bring my son back with me to my country of origin or would I have any other permit because he was born in Switzerland?

Thanks

CH does not offer Citizenships to children who are born here automatically.

You have to apply for them via the normal route though they have an accelerated eligibility basis timing.

And if they are dependant on you, then they go with you when you move.

Unless the father is Swiss your child doesn’t have Swiss citizenship.

However, if you lose your job you need to remember that you may well need the father’s permission to take your son out of the country. I’m assuming you’re not married since you don’t mention a husband/partner.

Your profile says you are Spanish, your B permit is not linked to your job.

If you resign or your employer terminates your employment agreement nothing happens to your B permit.

And then you just find a new job.... to support yourself and your child.... if you have worked within the EU for at least 12 months in the past 2 years you would be able to access the unemployment insurance system for a period of time.

You would need to find suitable childcare, to be able to look for work/work again....

And yes, it will be much more complex if the father (assuming there is one) is involved as then you would also need his agreement and to follow the laws regarding shared parenting rights.

Hi again, actually this didn’t happen, it’s just to cover possibilities. Me and my wife are living here now with the B permit. Im European and she is not. We’ll have a child and I wanted to know this.

Are you sure that the B permit is not linked to the job? I’ve read in some websites that if I loose the job I have to find another in 3 months or going out of the country. Anyone else can comfirm that?

Of course not as EU citizen you have a residence permit not a work permit. You are free to change jobs, become self employed, study do what you want as long as you don’t draw on social help.

Not for EU nationals. It's different for Non-EUs.
