At the end of April, our clients successfully applied to AIMA under Article 98 for family reunification – specifically, reuniting parents with a residence permit holder.
We supported them throughout the entire process: we developed the strategy, gathered the documents, and secured an appointment slot at AIMA through the court. And everything went perfectly! The best part is that the results didn't keep them waiting – they have already received their residence permits!
For those whose relatives entered Portugal before April 21st, it is still possible to apply for family reunification from within the country under the old rules. Everyone else will be subject to the new family reunification laws.
