New residence permits by flyingpommy

Hi, can someone advise me of the website where I can view the application forms for residency. How do the new rules apply to ourselves whereas we only arrive on 20th February and will not have any ID thanks

dreamkin

Damp/Mould in Homes. by GuestPoster566

Now I know last year this was an issue that was problematic due to the very bad winter but how bad is this in more 'usual' winters? I also understand that newer homes are now built with cavity walls, is this correct? Thanks.

dreamkin
