Question: Can I marry my illegal boyfriend and will that effect my own residence status?

Answer: First of all only marry someone when you love him and most importantly trust him. Some people really want a residence permit and are willing to do all to get it.   Do you live in The Netherlands as a ..... citizen? Because only when you are permanently living in The Netherlands can you marry here. You also need to find out if the Gemeente is willing to marry your lover as he will need documentation as a passport and a declaration of being single. The fact that you two will marry changes nothing in regard to his or your legal stay here. He will still be illegal.   What he needs to do is return to his fatherland and apply for a mvv, a long time stay visa, as your husband. But he can also do that as your boyfriend. You will need to show that you have income out of a job or a pension over minimum wage and for at least a year. Otherwise he is not allowed to come.   Kind regards, Wytzia Interessant artikel?

Lock ‘em up: the proposal to amend the EU’s Returns Directive

Afbeelding
Steve Peers , Professor of Law, University of Essex One of the key EU laws regulating migration is the Returns Directive , now nearly ten years old, which regulates the main aspects of irregular migration by non-EU citizens. It requires Member States in principle to issue a return decision to every non-EU citizen not authorised to be on their territory, and to enforce that decision by removing the person concerned. In some cases, irregular migrants should be given a period for voluntary departure, so they won’t be subject to forced removal. Member States are required to issue entry bans to many of those subject to a return decision, but must provide for basic remedies to challenge expulsion. There are also rules on the grounds for detention of irregular migrants and their conditions during detention. When it was adopted, NGOs supporting migrants believed that the Directive set an inexcusably low standard. However, in practice the CJEU has interpreted the Directive m...

Free book: "Illegal: A True Story of Love, Revolution and Crossing Borders "

Afbeelding
Ik ben lid van een boekenclub die me mailtjes stuurt met boeken die tijdelijk gratis zijn. Dit was degene die er vandaag bij zat. Wellicht wat voor ons. U kunt hem lezen met de gratis Kindle App. Geen idee of het wat is. A raw account of a young American abroad grasping for meaning, this pulsating story of violent protests, illegal border crossings and loss of innocence raises questions about the futility of borders and the irresistible power of nationalism. Illegal tells the true story of love and deception, revolutions and deportations as it chronicles the trials of John Dennehy. Naïve New Yorker, Dennehy refuses to be part of the feverish nationalism of post 9/11 America. His search for hope takes him to Ecuador, where he falls in love with firebrand Lucia, who perfects his broken Spanish while they find solidarity in the brewing social upheaval. Amid the unrest, Dennehy is arrested and deported to the United States but he has found something worth fighting for. ...

Drowned: This could happen to you when you use a smuggler to travel to the EU illegally

 So do not run that risk!   Harrowing underwater footage of the migrant ship that sunk killing more than 300 last autumn has emerged, following another tragic shipwreck off the coast of Lampedusa. As police divers explore the sunken wreck, the bodies of those that did not survive can be seen on board and scattered on the surrounding sea bed . In one heartbreaking image a young couple had remained in a loving embrace even as they drowned.

"The illegal immigrants Britain CAN'T kick out" Artikel in the Daily Mail

Afbeelding
Het gaat hier geslaagde beroepen op het EVRM. Er worden een aantal voorbeelden aangehaald waarbij er twee worden uitgelicht. De eerste is een Chinese mensensmokkelaar en slangenkop die na zijn gevangenisstraf lid wordt van een Christelijke geloofsgemeenschap en in een soort klooster is gaan wonen en in de zevenenhalf jaar sinds zijn vrijlating heeft hij nooit meer iets misdaan. Zijn recht op privéleven conrform artikel 8 EVRM wordt daarom door de rechter eerbiedigd. Is dat nou zo erg? In onze Westerse maatschappij die toch dooraderd is met waarden uit een Christelijk verleden is berouw van zonden en je leven beteren toch juist iets wat wordt geprezen. En als iemand dan geen gevaar meer oplevert voor de maatschappij maar uit dat kloosterleven worden gehaald en teruggestuurd naar China voor hem zijn leven zwaar negatief zou beïnvloeden dan lijkt mij die artikel 8 EVRM redenering toch geen schade aan Engeland berokkenen. De ander is een Somaliër die vanaf zijn prille kinderjaren in Enge...

Illegal immigrants who have passed the bar want to practice (Doet aan onze vraag of mensen mogen stage lopen denken)

Afbeelding
In Nederland speelt de vraag of mensen mogen stage lopen. In America gaan ze een stapje verder: Illegal immigrants who have passed the bar want to practice Judges in several states are preparing to answer the latest question in the complex world of immigration: Can an illegal immigrant legally practice law in the USA? Law school graduate Sergio Garcia has passed the California state bar exam but has been prevented from practicing law because his family entered the country illegally. Illegal immigrants brought to the USA as children, and who later graduated law schools in California, Florida and New York, are trying to gain entry to their state bars so they can work as attorneys. Sergio Garcia's family illegally crossed into the USA from Mexico when he was 17 months old, and he went on to graduate from Chico State University and Cal Northern School of Law. He took the state bar exam in July 2009 and passed it but was told he could not join the state bar — a stand...

Top Grades, and No Papers

The New York State Youth Leadership Council gives undocumented youth a platform to raise their voices and humanize a debate that’s dominated by myths and stereotypes. Here, Berenice tells her story of struggling to excel as a young scholar. Seeking to move onto the next stage of her academic career, she’s realized that her credentials are flawless on paper–except for the papers she lacks. My name is Berenice and I am an undocumented graduate of Columbia University. I got my bachelor’s degree in May 2010. To be honest up until the end of April I was not looking forward to graduation. Rather than being excited I was afraid. For four years Columbia had provided me with a safe and protective environment. However, after graduation all of that protection would be gone. To make matters even worse, even though I had made it this far I would not be able to accept a lab technician position that had been offered to me by my mentor. This was the perfect job for a recent college graduate. Th...

Being illegal is easy in the Netherlands

Illegal aliens like Brazilian Fernando Alves Pimentel earn a fair sum in the Netherlands. Now it is time for him to go home. By Sander Heijne in Amsterdam "I have had a good time here. I managed to stay out of police hands. I have worked, made money and had fun. But it's enough. I want to go back home," said Fernando Alves Pimentel one day before leaving the Netherlands. After two-and-a-half years in Amsterdam, Alves reported himself to the International Organization for Migration (IOM). In the Netherlands, this NGO helps illegal aliens return to their home countries by paying for their ticket if they can't afford one. Alves had stuffed two suitcases until they weighed 23 kilos each. He would bring home about 2,500 euros worth of goods purchased in the Netherlands: a computer, a camcorder, clothes. He barely had any cash on him; all his money had been safely wired to a Brazilian bank account. "What I made here will last about ten years," the 28-year-...
