How did I not know about this podcast?! I’ve been following you since you were in Florida waiting for your visas! You two are making the best “move to Portugal” videos available. It’s a real service! Thank you! ♥️
We started the podcast in real earnest at the beginning of 2023. For the whole year, we were solely on podcast feeds and then we decided, it was worth putting the video captured to use and getting a UA-cam Podcast channel. Thank you for the kind words! Sometime we have a hard time keeping up with the comment section on all of the channels we have but we see you and appreciate you! - Josh & Kalie
Thanks for your efforts in trying to help others! I'm currently doing my homework and checking options - I will email you in due course for assistance!! Thanks again!
Another great video to keep us up to date. I didn't see him cover the extension of Visas etc. by the Portugal government through June 2025. Our residents permit expired last month so we were under the impression that we had that extension period to finally get through the portal or get an AIMA appointment. Hoping Portugal lets us back in when we return from Turkey this November with expired residence permits.
Hi you two, well I'll be in Portugal this November for 9 days anyway, then I have to see what happens with our crazy Govt.!I wish I could leave today!!@@ExpatsEverywherePodcast
REPUBLIC OF IRELAND is taking the Brexit victim from Great Britain, because of the HM Government of IRELAND Act 1949, and subsequent trajectory issues with the ROI DUBLIN authority 🇮🇪
I like the way you present the information Iam getting my papers to move to Portugal hopefully this year Thanks for helping us to understand the process to move to Portugal
So, so bummed about the NHR VISA changes. I am now pivoting to Southern France as my retirement destination. At least for the shorter term (mid 2025 -> ?) Will keep my fingers crossed for a better outcome to restore or revamp the NHR situation.
Any ideas on residence requirements in Portugal after the citizenship submission is delivered? I want to submit and leave and just return to pick it up, however long it takes. Like you, I am about a year and change from initiation of the process.
Once you are a permanent resident (my dad is) i believe the requirements are that you are physically in Portugal 6 months out of 3 years…don’t trust me but that is my understanding.
What happens when you qualify to apply for citizenship at the 5 year point but in the meantime, your temporary residence card also expires? Are you supposed to renew the temporary at the same time you wait for the citizenship? Thanks!
Diogo actually goes over this situation in this video ua-cam.com/video/QsUfI-y8O8Q/v-deo.htmlsi=Y_vOXaTeKNsr08QJ It's on our main UA-cam channel. It's in the 4 scenario. - Josh & Kalie
@@ExpatsEverywherePodcast Thanks guys! =) I might be missing this but I watched it twice LOL. He mentions at 5 years you can apply for citizenship or permanent residency. But he doesn't mention anything about your status in the meantime. I'm assuming the temporary card is considered expired but you are legal awaiting the citizenship. So the only proof you would have is a paper saying you submitted your application for citizenship, etc. Anyway thanks!!
You renew your temporary residency when you apply for your citizenship. Remember that these are two different organizations that you're going through for these two things. :-) - Josh & Kalie
Kalie is actually going through a rather involved dentist procedure that she's documenting. Our experience here with a couple dentists has been good. - Josh & Kalie
@@ExpatsEverywherePodcast Bom Día! Thx Josh! I hope it goes smoothly for Kalie! Would you recommend dental 🦷 insurance or do you just pay out of pocket?
We've been paying out of pocket but we also know of some good friend that get dental insurance. Both ways are pretty inexpensive. If you think you're going to have regular dentist visit, go for the insurance. - Josh & Kalie
I am Poruguese. My positioi is: Tourist VIsa is for tourism. ONLY. Portuguese voters made it clear that there is a need to stop. This scam. Why do you think the law changed!!! Ando no political party made a fuss!!! I have ZERO respect for lawyers, their objective ; make money. This lawyer made a very rosy speach, encouring clients to go to the Supreme Court, hope he does it for free. Forget to mention that Portugal is in the EU. I have no doubts that in the near future the EU is going to tighten the rules. Also, that in a democracy VOTERS count. I have a relative, that had a flat to rent, was contected by a lawyer, saying that he had a client interested. No problem. He was here in a tourist visa, he (lawyer) had contacted the Supreme Court to get him a resident permit. He made used of all the 'legal' hype to impress. Waste of time, not impressed. When he insisted, remainded him that even the Supreme Court is not above the Portuguese Constitution. Have not heard from him since.
i was asked a question from some usa folks that would like to move to portugal. her husband has traumatic brain injury and need home health, k have no experience in this area. do you know anyone who knows about it.
Can you make a video or speak about how an EU citizen's transition may be compared to say an american or canadian? For example, healthcare, residency, real estate purchasing... If I am already a citizen of another European country, do I have access to Portuguese healthcare right away, better rates for schools, benefits in purchasing real estate or access to better interest rates, etc? Do I need to apply for portuguese residency/citizenship still? What are other differences and pros/cons of moving to Portugal while already having a passport for the EU? Thanks guys, watch all of your vids!
Thank you. Would you like someone on the podcast to talk about it or a video on our main channel about it? Most of it is the same. It's the moving part that's drastically different. - Josh & Kalie
@@ExpatsEverywherePodcast Either podcast or video on main channel would be great. Would actually be moving from north america - just have the EU citizenship and trying to figure out what are the main differences in terms of benefits of already having the EU citizenship. For example, I know with EU citizenship I can move, live and work in Portugal but having an EU passport is not the same as having Portuguese citizenship, right? Would love to learn more about the pros and, if there's any, cons of this when it comes to moving to Portugal with EU passport. Would we get access to the same services (healthcare) and rates, etc as the portuguese citizens do? Thanks so much, love the channels.
What a pity that the PT government does not value EU people who are fluent in Portuguese and who genuinely wanted to retire there and step up in the community due to love of the country and the culture. With less than 1 year to my retirement, I now have to investigate another country where I will be welcome without having to pay the same percentage out of my pension as I paid out of my salary, when working. Greece take only a 7% cut, but it’s so far away and I don’t speak Greek. Gutted. Fado da Decepção! 🎶🎤😭
How much of a cut does Portugal want? I have heard that if one has passive income from pension/investments, the tax is very high, even double taxation.

What about the grandfathered applications backlog?
Ah ok so the clock begins at the time of the application. That's good.
Good info. thank you. I think I'll be stuck here in Bristol, Tn. for another two years.
Hi Lilly, if I could "make it out" of Bristol, you can too. :-) - Josh

I have been waiting since 5months!!! for a slot to open in India for the DIGITAL NOMAD - AND NO INFORMATION HAS BEEN SHARED ANYWHERE :(
Sorry to hear you've been waiting so long. There are a lot of inquires coming from India from what we've heard. - Josh & Kalie
From where you are doing A2 level portuguese certificate?
If you'd like, email Kalie at info@expatseverywhere.com and she can pass you the information. - Josh
Any ideas on residence requirements in Portugal after the citizenship submission is delivered? I want to submit and leave and just return to pick it up, however long it takes. Like you, I am about a year and change from initiation of the process.
From what we've been told, the law reads in such a way that after 5 years of residency that one can indeed submit the paperwork and leave Portugal.
@@ExpatsEverywherePodcast Thanks. That is what I hoped. The sooner I get back to Asia, the better.

How much of a cut does Portugal want? I have heard that if one has passive income from pension/investments, the tax is very high, even double taxation.
Basic UK state pension will be taxed in Portugal a whopping 22%.
Can I afford. On 2900 a month
