Who needs the status
Principal applicant, spouse, children and other eligible dependants are reviewed as one applicant group.
STATUS
Residency as part
of the project
We assess the legal basis, applicant composition, status maintenance and its relationship with business, banking and assets.
Project perspective
Residency within the wider project
The correct route depends on the result the client needs, the people who must be included, the evidence available and the conditions that must remain true after approval. We therefore test the route before treating it as a project.
The first assessment is designed to identify decision points and dependencies before documents or commitments are created.
Key considerations
What makes a route workable
Each question has its own evidence, risk and responsible specialist. The project becomes clear when these questions are answered together.
What creates the legal basis
Investment, employment, business activity, income or another statutory ground must be supported by the right evidence.
How the status is kept
Validity, physical presence, renewal conditions and document expiry are separated from tax residence.
What else changes
The residence route may affect business management, banking evidence, property use and family planning.
Assessment scope
What we assess first
We do not request a full sensitive file at the first contact. The required evidence is defined after the route and scope are clear.
Objective and geography
What should change for the client, in which jurisdiction and within what realistic sequence.
Applicant composition
Who is included, dependency rules, age limits and any separate applications that may be required.
Admissibility and restrictions
Nationality, prior immigration history, sanctions exposure and authority-specific limitations.
Evidence and source of funds
What must be documented, translated, legalized or independently verified before filing.
Presence and maintenance
Entry requirements, time outside the jurisdiction, renewal triggers and ongoing obligations.
Connected decisions
How the route interacts with corporate, banking, property and succession work.
Connected architecture
A status that works in practice
A residence permit may solve the right to live in a country, but it does not automatically solve tax residence, banking access, corporate management or ownership questions. These workstreams are assessed separately and connected only where necessary.

- Comparison of realistic route options
- Applicant and evidence plan
- Implementation sequence and responsibility map
- Renewal and maintenance calendar
Working sequence
From brief to maintained status
The sequence is adjusted to the route, authority and evidence available. No stage is treated as an automatic approval.
Brief
Define the personal, family and geographic outcome.
Assessment
Test the legal basis and restrictions.
Route selection
Compare realistic alternatives and obligations.
Implementation
Prepare evidence and coordinate submissions.
Maintenance
Track validity, presence and renewal conditions.
Private client questions
Questions to answer first
Does residence automatically create tax residence?
No. Immigration status and tax residence are separate questions and must be assessed under the relevant rules.
Can family members be included?
That depends on the route, relationship, age, dependency and the rules in force at filing.
Is a bank account part of the residence approval?
No. Banking is a separate regulated decision and cannot be guaranteed by an immigration route.
When should documents be collected?
After the route and evidence requirements are confirmed, so the file is built for the correct authority and purpose.
Start with an applicability review
We will identify the relevant questions, dependencies and the next professional step.
