At the end of the initial stage, the foreign partner\u2019s residence visa will be extended until the application for legal status has been filed.

If the foreign partner\u2019s existing visa is based on a previous application to the Interior Ministry regarding a relationship that has since been terminated, they will receive a new visa until the evaluation procedure is completed. If a gradual procedure (which constitutes the next stage after filing the application) has already been started based on the prior terminated relationship, that procedure will be cancelled, and the foreign partner will be required to start a new gradual procedure based on the relationship with the current partner.<\/p>\n
