first of all, thank u for the informative video :) i have some question about the residency permit. how long did it take to get permit b as a family reuion? did u directly apply for the residency permit or did u get the visa first then ask for residency permit?
You are welcome. To travel to Switzerland you have to apply for the visa and on arrival you apply for your permit from the local authorities. Usually when they give you the visa they will not have a problem giving you the permit. Just know that before getting your visa they will interview the two parties involved at the same time. Once you have the visa you will definitely get the permit but you still have to apply for it when here.
Hello Tinah, you can only do the CAS here once you have experience working here or your degree is recognised and meets the Swiss nursing degree level. As for the Masters you can do it as an international student but it does not guarantee your stay here. Immigration office and the education office are two very different offices. Many have been disappointed. If you finish your Masters and an employer wants you to work for them, they have to show that they cannot get a Swiss citizen, EU citizen or non-EU citizen already here to fill that post. This can be difficult since most EU citizens are migrating to Switzerland because of the high salaries.
Thanks for the video! My partner is a EU citizen, but I'm not. Do I get any benefit from that when seaching for a job in Switzerland, or am I in the same situation as any other non-EU citizen?
You’re welcome. For job search you will be like any other non-EU citizen already here. If your profession is in the highly sorted after domains like IT then no worries. However, if your spouse has a C permit, you can get a C permit as well after 5 years of your marriage in Switzerland or your arrival in Switzerland if married abroad. This then puts you at par with the EU citizens.
If someone married in Switzerland but he left Switzerland 4 months then he stay 10 days in Switzerland then he left again in the same year for four months, is that risk to loose his residency and do you have a solution. The person from Middle East
I am not a legal expert but what I’m certain about is that holders of B and C permits must live in Switzerland 6months each year. However, some people might have to be away due to special reasons e.g a very sick family member and this is up to the office concerned to decide whether they can keep their permit or not. I don’t have a solution.

Hello, work visa does not work like that. Visitor's visa does. Your brother's wife or children can be considered in the case of family reunion but not you. Kindly let your brother consult with his regional administrative office. They are in a better position to guide you.
Hello! Great! Are you able to get the citizenship? This will be a sure way. If you can, please do. In the meantime, try looking for job offers on the sites I mentioned and apply with your CV and application documents in German. If they cannot find someone and you are already in Europe they can go through the hustle of getting you a work permit.
black and south asian brothers and sisters should really inform themselves about the problems with racism in switzerland. it's really one of the worst places to be in europe for racist reasons - but if you're okay with that and well informed, you're able to make a good decision for yourself. often it's near impossible to find work and many black and south asian workers have to accept work far below the status of their work history and education would deem to be normal. often they end up in cleaning jobs even when having multiple advanced degrees, that's what kind of place switzerland is, i'm sad to say
Hi Maurine, I am soon to get my Belgium Citizenship. I have Bachelor in Nursing from India but its not recognized by Belgium. If i study French would my Indian degree be recognised by swiss government to work as a nurse there? Will i fall under EU category or non EU category after getting my Belgian citizenship and Indian degree?
Hello, congratulations on your Belgian citizenship. You will be considered as an EU citizen when applying for a job but your degree remains non-EU. This is however not negative. Just means that you will go through the non-EU recognition process. Getting a job will however be easier because of your Belgian citizenship
Depends on what you studied. If it is a highly demanded skill then you have a high chance of getting a permit. Will post a video on these high skill jobs. Otherwise the education department and the permit department are different hence no guarantee.
Hi my wife is french citizen she is working in suisse then i am having in 3childre but i am non européen can i apply for permis B because i have the 10 years card in France ?
Hi, if you wife is working and living in Switzerland you can apply for a permit for family reunion reasons. However if she doesn’t live here then you have no basis for asking for a permit.
Yes you can. Usually for non/EU nationals a valid C work permit or marriage to a Swiss citizen is needed. If you don't have this then you can contact the canton you want to set up your business in and they will ask you for all the necessary documents like business plan, account statements etc to see whether what you want to set up is of real economic value to Switzerland. Hope this helps
@@maureensunshine3185 in that case, do companies still need to certify that they couldn't find eligible employees in EU? She'll get Ci once she has a offer
@@maureensunshine3185very informative . Thank you . But I don’t have citizen yet from Irelend , I am just a residence holder here . Is it still the same ?? 😊
Please dear, am a Ugandan, driver, engineering plant operator, how do i get a job from Switzerland. I have B, C, D1, G, and Engineering plants besides that i hold Diploma in civil engineering ( ODC)
oh man, thats sad. Im a turkish nurse, and getting a work permit would be impossible when other EU countries also have trained nurses wanting to go to switzerland... i guess i might as well think of other countries. i came here from the first video you uploaded, wondering what a "work permit" is. Its such a shame...
Yeah. This is the current situation. However, latest news showed that they are not managing to recruit enough from the EU. Things might change. I agree with you that looking elsewhere may be a great idea. Germany for example. Wishing you the very best.
Sorry these jobs do not fall under highly skilled professions. If you are a EU citizen then you can apply but if not then it’s really hard to access the job market.
@@MM-jj7eb Oh, no need to fear. High cost of living goes with their high salaries. You only have a problem if you do not have a job or are living beyond your means. There are shops for everyone and ways to economize.
@@opeoluwaotitoola4043 hello, you have to plan ahead and have enough money to pull you through your studies. This needs real sacrifice. I will work on putting up a video on some ways to pull through with very little resources.
Thank you very much for the informative video. Can you please explain if a Non-EU citizen can come as a spouse of a student and do at least any part time work in Switzerland? My wife has been given a scholarship to study in Switzerland and we are looking at the possibility of me coming with her during the 10 months she will be in Switzerland studying.

Hello, now if being employed from my country is close to impossible, is it easier if I have done my masters or CAS from there?

At this point, I have given up on my Switzerland dream. Nevertheless I appreciate the information.
Sorry. You are welcome. There are still other doors open. Nad you never know, you might eventually make it here another way.

With the Ci permit you have access to the Swiss Labour market and therefore can apply for a job.
