Hello

I am sorry if this has been asked before.

My partner and mine L permit(we are non -eu) expires in September 2011.
Do we renew the permit or the company my partner works will renew for us.

And how much time will it take

Thanx in advance

it depends on the company, how much help they give you. your partner should ask at her HR dept.

anyway, you should be getting a form in the mail, that should be stamped at her workplace (or a work contract will do), then with the current L permit, passport, and 130 CHF or so, one of you should go to the Gemeindehaus. after registering you, they'll make an appointment for you with some office where you'll get your fingerprints and photo taken (this last every 5 years only.)

it takes maybe 2-4 weeks.

How long have you been on the L permit? Is this your first renewal?

If so, they usually mail you the form for renewal 6 weeks prior - we just received ours to renew our B. Your hubby should take the forms to his company HR for the stamp and send it off with payment.

It will take 2-3 months for the permit cards to arrive - depending on how back logged the migration office is and how many people are away for summer holidays.
