🗣We Have Some Great News: Now There Are Two New Ways to Obtain Permanent Residency in Russia!

Starting January 8, 2025, there are two new ways to get a residence permit in Russia, according to Federal Law No. 517-FZ signed on December 28, 2024.

1. Family Ties: Foreign nationals with direct ascending relatives (like parents or grandparents) who were born or lived in the former RSFSR, the Russian Empire, or the USSR can apply for permanent residency.

2. Work Experience: Foreign citizens can now apply for permanent residency without first getting a temporary residency if they have worked continuously for at least one year in Russia in a profession that will be listed by the Ministry of Labor.

To apply under both conditions, candidates should pass a test on the Russian language and history.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦The Nizhny Novgorod region for families: the fifth anniversary of the family was announced in the Nizhny Novgorod region

The regional government is adopting a comprehensive package of support measures for parents. For example, regional payments for each child will increase to 1 million roubles.

Nizhny Novgorod has always been concerned about the formation of family culture. The region has favorable mortgages for large families, compensation for housing, gifts for newborns and IVF quotas. The most active and outstanding families and parents receive regional awards.

The Family Quarter, a single multifunctional reproductive health center, is also being created here. The first state IVF/ICSI center will also appear there.

❕We would like to note separately that in 2024 the "OKA" Agency helped 12 foreign families to move to the Nizhny Novgorod region. All of them have successfully started a new life in Russia together with their children.
