(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /var/www/sites/lawfirmbackup_200125/wordpress/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6131How does an Israeli partner being convicted of pimping (solicitation for prostitution) impact the status of their foreign partner for the purpose of establishing a joint life in Israel? This largely depends on the circumstances of the conviction, the time that has passed since, and other factors. Attorney Michael Decker, an expert in Israeli immigration law, explains the process and obstacles involved in gaining status in Israel – starting the process of becoming a resident \\ citizen – for the foreign partner of Israeli pimp.<\/p>\n
Our law firm, with offices in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, specializes in immigration to Israel and the regularization of status for foreign partners of Israelis who wish to live in Israel with their partners. Our attorneys have extensive experience in handling status regularization for numerous couples in Israel.<\/p>\n
Under the Israeli Penal Law<\/a>, solicitation for prostitution (pimping) carries a sentence of up to five years in prison. This raises the question of whether a past conviction for pimping by an Israeli citizen, who is now in a relationship with a foreign citizen, could impact the chances of regularizing the foreign partner\u2019s status. In principle, it is understood that even convicted individuals have the right to form relationships and establish families. However, the Ministry of Interior’s procedures<\/a> allow the ministry, when opening a joint life file, to consult external entities (such as the police and security services) and obtain information about the criminal background of Israeli partners. This may lead to a refusal to open a joint life file in exceptional cases, such as when the Israeli partner has been imprisoned or detained. Ministry of Interior representatives have in fact previously denied requests following the conviction of Israeli partners for pimping.<\/p>\n
