Poland | Dealing with immigration is stressful enough, but one local resident’s quest for permanent residency has hit a major bureaucratic roadblock—all because of a scheduling conflict.
Taking to social media to crowd-source answers, the applicant revealed a frustrating catch-22 involving their landlord and a notary public. While they possess a notarized title deed and a signed declaration from the property owner, they are missing a notarized rent contract because both parties simply cannot find a mutually free time to visit a notary together. Terrified of being turned away at the immigration office for bringing an unnotarized lease, the expat is now left wondering if the landlord’s official declaration will be enough to satisfy immigration officers.
