Temporary residence

Do I need a work permit for temporary residence? Does it give RVP right to work?

Many people coming to Russia from abroad are interested in working with a temporary residence permit in a particular region. It would be logical to immediately clarify that a temporary residence permit and a work permit are two different documents. But if you already have a temporary registration, then for work within of this subject You can also apply for the federation.

Work and temporary residence: what is unclear?

So, working with a temporary residence permit still raises many questions. Why? Partly due to the leapfrog in Russian legislation, which has reigned for the last about a decade and a half. In fact, in 2002, a law was already passed allowing persons who had previously received temporary registration to work without a special permit. That is, a temporary residence permit and work were completely combined.

But then, in 2007, in regulatory framework The Russian Federation has made adjustments. According to the then legislative initiatives, hardworking foreigners willing to invest their professional potential to Russian National economy, had to receive both registration and permission to work. The innovation “lasted” only 6 years, and in 2013 everything returned “to normal.”

So, if you have permission to temporary residence, do you need a work permit to a foreigner? We answer: no, it’s not necessary! At least according to the situation in 2014. Nobody knows what will happen next. We can only hope that the state will no longer experiment in the bureaucratic field in terms of creating artificial difficulties for people who have come to support the national economic complex of the Russian Federation with their own hands and brains. All in all, temporary residence permit, work permit- This various documents, but the temporary residence permit also gives the right to employment.

Do you have a job, but no temporary registration?

Another question on our minds labor migrants: What if you already have a job in mind, but don’t have a temporary residence permit yet? There is only one answer: come! A certificate from your place of work is not needed to obtain a temporary residence permit, but having a job will solve the problem of extending your residence permit. Simply put, if you do not work and do not have sufficient means to live, then your temporary registration may not be extended. And even cancel the one you have already received.

By the way, carefully monitor what salary you were officially given. That is, on what amount do you pay taxes. This is especially true if you did not come to work alone, but brought with you your wife, children and other relatives who did not want to part with you while you were working in Russia. And especially if out of this whole friendly company you are the only one who got a job. Then if your salary is the only official source income, they will calculate from it average income for each member of your family.

The point of all this is that the official income for each foreigner in Russia should be no less than living wage. The cost of living is established by the relevant regulations, it can be changed, so you need to monitor this very carefully. If the official income is consistently lower, then your temporary registration may be “revoked.” The exception is undergraduate and graduate students day departments. Considering the fact that they usually study at on a contract basis, by default it is assumed that they have the means to live.

Such restrictions also do not apply to pensioners and disabled people. Pension, be it for age or for disability, this is a thing - as much as they give, so much they give. Will it be higher than the subsistence level or lower? established by the state minimum – it depends on your luck. In any case, if you are applying for temporary registration, already having the prospect of employment, this is always better than going to temporary residence without certain job prospects.

Many foreign citizens and their employers are thinking about how to simplify their stay in Russia: live and work legally, but not spend monthly large sums money for documents.

So let's compare the two documents − labor patent and a temporary residence permit. Both of these documents allow you to live and work in Russia. Which is more profitable?

Validity: You can work in Russia only for the period for which you paid monthly tax for a patent. This period cannot exceed 12 months. After the first year foreign citizen may submit documents in advance for re-registration of the patent or leave the territory of the Russian Federation.

Special conditions:

• You can only work in the profession specified in the patent. If a foreigner wants to work in a different profession, he must apply for a new patent;
• You can only work in the region for which the patent was issued. To work in another region, a foreign citizen can apply for a second patent, but he will have to pay for both. Or he can also contact the UMC with an application to change the data.

Relations with the employer: After receiving a patent, a foreigner has two months to find an employer. A foreign citizen can work in several places at the same time or change employers. In this case, it is necessary to conclude an agreement with each employer and send a notice about it. If a foreigner has been fired from his job, he has two weeks to find a new employer.

Special conditions:

• issued on the grounds for receiving this status or within the annual quota;
• a foreigner has the right to work in any profession;
• a foreigner can only work in the region for which the temporary residence permit was issued. If he wants to change region RVP actions, you will have to submit a statement indicating the reason for the change.

Registration: after obtaining temporary residence permit a foreign citizen must complete registration within 7 working days. After this, he has the right to freely travel outside the Russian Federation, upon return re-registration not required.
