Hello all-

I am moving to Lisbon next summer through a teaching program. I'll be teaching English through ISS, so all of my visa paperwork and employment is taken care of. That said, I am hoping to get some information on having my girlfriend move with me.

We've been together for three years and are hoping to move together. She is not employed through the program or any other program at this time. I was wondering what visa options there are for her. She'll have an undergrad degree in a medical field (Psychology) and some work experience with canvassing and political groups. What are our options for obtaining a visa for her?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!

Hello both!

I wish you all the best if you move to Lisbon!
This is a very interesting city, full of sun and bright light, monumenst and hidden churches everywhere.
I'm suspect, but i think this is one of the nicest cities in Europe.

I think you should contact you embassy to ask about visa and work permits, for sure they will have the best info.
