What's your biggest question about the D7 visa?
I have 30k Euro in the bank. This balance is equal to qualified passive income? I do not have passive income from other resources, such as rental, interest, etc.
@@laoliu5783 There should money keeps coming every month Euro 625.00 to your bank account. Minimum approximately Euro 7,500 per annum must be credited. Immigration very particular to verify all this aspect.
Does stock investment counts toward income requirement?
For your financial means, you need to transfer the money to a Portuguese bank account. If you can get the money from the investment account to a Portuguese bank account, then it should work fine.
@lao liu That should be more than enough đ

Hi Julia, great video, Portugal is at top of my list of places to relocate to this summer. Having never been I'm hoping I can just fly out and use my 90days on my usa passport and if things are going great then ill buy a house there in that time and just apply for the D7 or perhaps something else while im still in Portugal? Don't have the $ for the citizenship programs etc I saw but have enough to buy a house in cash.
Nice information love from dubai
Yes!
A residency video would be great. Thinking of retiring there, but that a couple years away. Is it ti early to begin the process?
Itâs definitely not too early to research where in Portugal you may want to live, check out the NHR tax regime, learn the language, research homes and the types of builds if youâre planning to buy a property. Lots of new things to learn! Some paperwork needs to be done closer to the application, but thereâs no harm in getting familiar with the process early as long as you donât get stressed about changes. It will probably change in some way if youâre years away
Thank you I watched the other videos on visa! Please recommend laces in enclave to stay for a month n Lisbon!đ đ
Julia, What do you know or think of D2 visa? Please make a video
Good info
I need some assistance on D7 visa
Can you please help me
After all the time that you have been there and with the discussions that you have had with others, what bank would you recommend setting up remotely to deposit money into for the D7 application? I'm from Houston btw too and want to go by the end of the year (2021).
Hi, thanks for the video. We appreciate what are doing to explain for as all the details.
I want to now if is possible the procedure to apply for the residence?
Hi Sony, I'm not sure I understand your question. Are you asking if the D7 visa is a way to apply for residence in Portugal?
Hi Julia: Great information greatly appreciated, I am awared of the requirements for the D7 visa but where can I download the application to flll it out if I want to do it on my own?I can't seem to find a link to download the form for USA citizens
Hi Julia,
Thank you for this video. This is very helpful. Yet, I'm quite confused about the very first step. So far, I have filled out the form and gathered most of the documents such as proof of income, health insurance and so on. From now, I don't know what to do. I believe that I have to make an appointment at San Francisco. Nevertheless, when I try to book one on VSF, they say no application found. So, how do I start this application?
Thank you for you help :)
Thank you so much for the informative video, I would like to ask you, How much should you be making monthly or annually as a passive income to qualify for the D7 visa.
Thank you in advance.
Great video....would to see a follow up video on your suggestions for obtaining a 2 year temporary residence permit
It's on the list, and I haven't gotten around to it yet. It's coming though!
Videos about the permit have now been posted!

Hey Julia, I'm just wondering whether you hired a consultant to do the application for you or whether you did it yourself and which way you would suggest? Thanks!
Thank you for the brief and informative video. What was the difference in using the DC counsel it over the Texas branch?. I hear that the DC Council it is easier to work with. Was that the reason for your choice? Thanks in advance.

Texas has a Portuguese consulate but it is an honorary consulate and does not process visas. I was required to use the DC consulate.
Hey Texas here!
Thank you Julia, great review! Please, make a video about the "Portuguese segment" of the visa process: How long did it take you to receive 2 years visa in Portugal.
Hi Lana, thank you for the suggestion. I have it on my list and will be making a video in the coming weeks :)
Yes, this!
â@Sun Shine @Lana M Took me a little longer than expected, but I've got two videos up on the Portuguese segment about the residence permit

What is the best bank in portugal?
We use Montepio, which has been a pretty decent bank, with good app and online banking as well as phone banking (don't know if they do English language phone help, but if you speak Portuguese it's good)
All expensives in commissions. But would be cgd, bpi, Santander
I only have experience with Caixa Geral de Depositos and I've liked it. They usually have a fee to keep the account that's around less than 5 euros per month. There are other banks that don't have the fee
Love your videos. I am interested in a temporary residency application . Can you help? Thanks
Hi julia can u explain more on statement bank that they need? How much they required in order for us to apply this d7 visa?
Interested in a video about Temp Residency Permit đ
Thanks, Mike! Iâll put it on my list. In the meantime, you may want to check out the Facebook group Americans & FriendsPT. They have a great guide đđŒ

I would like to apply for that
Hi
Can you tell us what happens when you visit SEF and details of that appointment and how long after that visit did you receive your residency card
Hi Andrew, sure thing! I plan to make a detailed video on this in the coming weeks. Briefly, you show the required paperwork and pay the fee. They didnât ask me many questions, but I did have to wait a while for the appointment. I believe my card took about six weeks to arrive, but Iâll definitely check and update the exact information in the video.
How do I do this as a 20 year old? Iâm trying to figure the best way to do this with my boyfriend who is living in the uk.
Hi Julia, I am planning to take a break from work for 3 to 6 months. Planning to spend some months in Portugal. Do I apply for d7 or just a tourist visa? Thanks!
I am near Austin Texas and find it difficult to find planes to fly from Texas to Portugal. I would not mind fly to Spain first then travel to PT by Bus, do you have any advice on travelling to PT from Central Texas. Austin will be the nearest airport unless there is Domestic plane from Killeen Forthood area which will be the best. I also try DC and NY, just the same difficulties. I used to fly Norwegian to Europe and would like to learn more options. Multiple stops to stay in different countries or cities around PT is doable as I enjoy travel by BUS in Europe.
There are a lot more flights from Houston than Austin so traveling by bus from Austin to Houston and then by plane to Portugal is another option

Is it possible to come Portugal on a visit visa then apply for TRC?
Great video Julia!
I am a non EU citizen and would like to know if; instead of having to apply for a residency visa and then having to go to Portugal to apply for residency permit, Is it possible to apply for a residency permit straight away from my home country?
And if so, do I need to have a fiscal representative(attorney) when I get the NIF number online?
Thank you.
Karl
Hi Karl, unfortunately you can't apply straight away for the temporary residence permit. That has to be done with SEF and requires the visa, which has to be processed through the consulate in your home country. When you first get the NIF, you will need a fiscal representative. If you need some help with this try one of these services:
Bruno with Taxes in Portugal: taxesinportugal.com/
Bordr (I'm a marketing affiliate): www.bordr.io/?via=juliarochelle
I have read that the authorities may accept capital in a bank rather than actual income.
Do you know anyone who has done this?
Can you please advice is there any visa programs for an entrepreneur other than D7 visa
Hi Julia, what about taxes? if you are an independent worker/freelancer that wants to move there, is portugal gonna take a % of your income for the tax?
Is it possible to move by this visa as an international student from us?
How much did you pay for the D7 visas including the residence pass and all fees??
I'm interested in the vid on applying for temporary residency permit. Currently, in Porto, traveling week to week at Airbnbs getting to know the country and heading back to the States 30 Nov 22.

Great videos. It would be helpful to explain what you need to do once you get to Portugal. I know you have to trade in your license. Things like that.
Thanks for the comment Kevin! I definitely have some videos like that planned. In the meantime, you may want to check out the Americans & FriendsPT Facebook group. They have a bunch of great resources.
@@JuliaRochelleAbroad I am on that group all the time, they are a great source of knowledge. I have been spending so much time gathering everything I need to apply for the Visa I haven' t really looked into what I do once I get there, yet. Thought it would help me and be a good video for you to do. Plus I'd rather watch the movie than read the book, so to speak. :)
@@kevinkostiuk7446 Understood, Iâd be happy to make some videos on that đ
Hi Kevin, I was finally able to post videos about the temp resident permit process once you get to Portugal. One on the general process: czcams.com/video/6oYwgWD3Bxk/video.html and one on my experience with SEF: czcams.com/video/ZtBV0pRtohQ/video.html
