    Girl any immigrant ever feels your pain. This isn't even that bad, in America you have Human Services, Social Security, and Social Services. And ANY time you need something from each place, they will send you to the other location. I literally once went to these three departments 8 times because they kept saying, "Oh this isn't our job...go to (so and so)"

I'm German, and we all *love* to pride ourselves on our supposed efficency and time management skills, but bureaucracy can be such a disaster here as well 😩😩 Sometimes, acquiring or getting back important official forms can take quite a while. Even for residents (mostly regarding insurrance etc.)

    • @Wariyaka
      @Wariyaka 3 роки тому

      The north, as in Scandinavia is generally not like this. You might have to wait for stuff but you are usually sent to the right place(s) at once and they often give out some form of temporary licences and/or numbers to you while you wait to get properly approved or worked into the system(s) so you should never end up with an "illegal" status because of bureaucracy screw ups.

    The best advice I can give, as an Italian, on how to overcome our bureaucracy: be worse than them. Show up repeatedly without appointments, don't feel ashamed to insist on everything (even if you feel like you're being rude), never trust what they say in person (online official sources tend to be slightly more truthful) and in general expect to be pissed off for the whole process.

I live in the EU and i used to work for a company where all we did was we helped foreign citizens navigate this horrible system, because the actual authorities are no help at all.

    When I had my first ID card done it was delivered by post. At the post office they told me to show them my ID so they can give me my letter. I was like, 'I don't have one, it is in your hand'.

    italian paperwork is so bad and a lot people working in these places have no desire to actually help you out in any way or make things easy for you. my grandfather needed a document to go from permesso di soggiorno to actual citizenship (like 20 years ago, but it's not like it was much different from how it is now) and had to schedule five appointments back and forth bc this one place kept saying they didn't have it and others told him they definitely did. they said he'd have to fly back to his country and get it there because they were SURE they didn't have it or wait until they could go through every document again. he ended up managing to convince the dude working there to make him look for it and found it within an hour...

The only difference being with Brexit going on, the government here genuinely doesn’t know what to do with us Brits. Also I’ve found in the Mediterranean if you’re told you need an appointment - you pretty much don’t, just turn up and no one will question it 😂 so true that no one wants to do anything online or over the phone here though, everything is very old fashioned and face-to-face

    Imagine living in Italy for 12 years and having to renew it every. f-ing. year. Also, for 2, TWO, consecutive years I risked not being able to take my exams at university because it took them 10, TEN months to give me the freaking plastic thingy.

    This is not an Italy problem, this is a Europe problem, bureaucracy, bureaucracy, bureaucracy... I'm moving back to Germany after 3 years in Saudi and the amount of paperwork they want, and explanations not to mention I have to pay taxes ON MY OWN BELONGINGS I'm bringing back with me - which by the way I had to write up detailed lists and costs for...etc etc. Anyone reading this, this is an aspect of Socialism people like to ignore. Oh and what Lily said is true, people won't lift a finger to help you, even for something as small as a stamp, the answer is always "that's not my department". Can't wait to leave Germany again.

    Hi Lily Thank you so much for explaining what you went through because soon in February or March 2021. I will need to do the same thing, go to the Questura in 8 days and apply for a Permesso di Soggiorno. Can I ask then, do you have to go to the post office first to collect the forms or do you go straight to the Questura and get the forms there? Also they would have to wait until we do the 14 days quarantine first before they can count the 8 days for me to go to the Questura. Anyway, yes unfortunately bureaucracy is like that there when they talk to you it seems like they want you to hurry up, hand in the documents and go and sometimes they go so fast you don't quite catch everything they say. I'm really happy you got the permit in the end. I would love to hear how you are going there with the lockdowns happening at the moment and soon for xmas. I hope things ease there soon so I can start putting in my application for an exemption here in Melbourne. Take care and have a happy Christmas.

    Hi Lily I forget to ask you how did you go with travel and health insurance for Italy for 12 months cover? Did you get travel insurance for the flights to cover your trip and then in Italy buy one year health insurance? Did you have to show anything at the airport in Australia when you departed at the airport? When you arrived in Italy did you have to show a certificate of insurance? Would appreciate some advise on this or who you bought the cover from? Thank you in advance.

    Hey, great video. Quick one - the both guides you posted says, only fill 1st module if it's your first Permesso di Soggiorno. Is it true even if I'm employed in Italy by the UN? Seems no one knows anything, I tried the questura, lawyers all seem useless. They just can't tell you simple and straight answer. If you know any good lawyer, then can you share his/her details? I got a visa type D (mission) which is valid until next year but I'm planning to resign from my job next month. So, figuring out a way to extend my stay here. Any tip/advice would be appreciated! Thanks much

    this bureaucracy stuff is a nightmare everywhere, I cannot imagine how it must be during covid. I have lived in three countries, spent a semester abroad and every now and then there have been utter nightmare moments where you just think "country/city xyz, get your sh*t together so that I can get my sh*t together, ok?" in my experience, it has only worked out smoothly in Austria (love love love). there is nothing you can do, when the countries are not organised, at least the deadlines are also not taken dead seriously if you cannot stick to them - at least in my experience.

  • @naverfeb17

    If you ask the permesso di soggiorno for the first time you have to go to Questura principale witch is the immigrazione centr . You will present all your documents all the photo copies.
    But watch out when you renewal the permesso di soggiorno you will have to go to police station near of your residence.
    Note: take the appointment form post office attached all the documents before two months of your psd getting expire .

    LMFAOOOO as an Italian I am so sorry you experienced it,our paperworks are insane. No one know anything about any problem, the information they give to you are not complete and they refer to you elsewhere every time without explanation, there’s always something up that come right after you make a step onward. It’s a joke

    Well I have to say things are improving but as a general suggestion on how approach the public offices :
    1) Wear Your best smile... ever! If you are dying inside ... just smile.. be empathic
    2) Think to approach an Artificial Intelligence. The AI will give You infos in raw format ... but You always need to drive the things.
    3) Be smart and creative , with Italian burocrazia nothing is completely written on a stone... You can always find huge space for workarounds.
    4) Most of the time there are Online fast ways to do the things that people and the physical offices often ignores or disencourages .
    5) And yes .. very often is useful to ask before to someone else that passed through a given iter before You.
