No more CPermit.

Well, it's just about official. I've been out of CH for 2 years exactly. We move to BA 2 years ago today and so I can now wave bu-bye to my C Permit. Will have to start again on a B when we get back.

I never ever thought I'd say this, but I want to go home to CH!!! (whaaaaa)

Hope you are all well, besos from way way down south and to the left.

Re: No more CPermit.

Well, what does the lady's location say? (Top right of her post)
Of course if you don't know where Buenos Aires is, you'll have to get an Atlas out - or Google it.

Actually I think you lost it at the 6 month point unless you requested and were approved for the 2 year extension prior to leaving.

Yes, we told them I was leaving for 2 years. My two years are now 2 years and a day. Extension has officially expired. Boo!

To maintain a presence here one needs to be registered with a residential address, the Einwohneramt wont believe for a second that someone is living in a post box.

I wouldn't fit in a post box plus at this point we can't afford the rent on a post box in Switzerland! LOL. Inflation is a killer.

Well, nothing really. I'm trying to make the most of my time here. It's a lot of fun. But I think one more year, max. It's a big dirty noisy city and I miss my clean quiet little village. Plus, the EF equivalent is filled with a bunch of lunatics!

You would think so right! Seriously sometimes I think they are the escapees from their home countries. Oh, wait.....
