Question: (Last edited: Tuesday, 30 August 2022, 10:20 AM)Reimbursement of Travelling Expenses: How can a student reimburse any travelling costs for moving through campuses to attend the classes? | ||
---|---|---|
Answer: When student groups in specialisation modules (Bachelor or Master programmes) are smaller, Wittenborg may decide to combine the groups with a other study location (Amsterdam/ Apeldoorn) to ensure consistency in our student experience. In similar situations, Wittenborg will reimburse the return travel costs (train/metro) between the two study locations (Amsterdam-Apeldoorn-Amsterdam/Apeldoorn-Amsterdam-Apeldoorn)
NOTE that this is not an option for students to follow classes at any campus. | ||
Question: (Last edited: Thursday, 18 April 2024, 11:25 AM)Residence Permit (RP): What shall I do if my RP is going to expire soon? How do I extend my RP? | ||
---|---|---|
Answer: In principle, you will be notified by Immigration and Naturalisation Service (IND) when your residence permit will expire soon (within three months). It is fully your own responsibility to notify Registrar Office and submit required information and documents completely to extend your residence permit on time to avoid residency gap in your residency in the Netherlands. Kindly refer the webform and upload all necessary documents to request for an RP extension: RP extension form. Please submit the form at least 6 weeks prior to your RP expiration date. Then the Registrar Office could have sufficient time to review your files, prepare your RP extension application and send to IND. Additionally, please note
that we cannot submit an application for a residence permit extension of the
validity if the residence permit is still valid for more than three months. The IND
will disregard an application for an extension that is submitted earlier than three months before the expiration date of the residence permit Should you have any question concerning this email, feel free to contact us directly via email: registrar@wittenborg.eu. | ||
Question: (Last edited: Tuesday, 14 July 2020, 10:04 AM)Residence Permit Expired: What should I do if my residence permit has expired but I cannot leave the Netherlands at this moment? | ||
---|---|---|
Answer: Submit an extension application at the IND desk where possible. If this is not possible, you can ask for a return decision at the counter. With a return decision, you then have an additional 28 days to leave the country. You can make appointments at the counter in the usual way, but bear in mind the currently limited services at the IND counters. | ||
Question: (Last edited: Tuesday, 9 March 2021, 10:59 AM)Residence Permit Gap: What is the "residence permit gap" and the consequences if I have a gap in the residence permit period? | ||
---|---|---|
Answer: A residence gap is an interruption in your continuous stay and may cause problems later on if you want to apply for a Dutch permanent residence. In general, a residence permit gap has affects in the longer term, if you decide to apply for a Dutch permanent residence permit in the future. In order to apply for a permanent residence permit, one of the requirements is that you have legally resided in the Netherlands for an uninterrupted period of five years or more before you make the permanent residence permit application. This means that you require to have had a valid residence permit for the full five years, without interruptions or gaps within this period. You have thus always applied for extension of your residence permit on time. Another requirement is that within these five consecutive years you have not stayed outside the Netherlands for six or more consecutive months, or three years in a row for four or more consecutive months. The consequence of a residence permit gap is that the period of legal residence in the Netherlands before this gap will not be taken into consideration. This means that you will have to start again building up a five-year uninterrupted period in the Netherlands to obtain permanent residency. For example: If your first residence permit is issued
from 01-09-2009 till 31-08-2013, and if you apply for residence permit
extension later than your expiration date (31-08-2013), then residency gap is
created, and the IND starts counting from that day onwards -- that day your application
form is received by the IND. Even a single day difference is recognised as a
residency gap. For more information and other requirements for applying the permanent residence permit, please visit: https://ind.nl/en/permanent-residence/Pages/permanent-residence-after-5-years.aspx Source: https://ind.nl | ||

Question: (Last edited: Tuesday, 28 April 2020, 10:36 AM)Residence Permit: Do I need a new residence permit after graduating from Wittenborg? | ||
---|---|---|
Answer: If students wish to stay in the Netherlands after graduating, they must apply for a new residence permit. They cannot stay on their study permit. Information about the conditions of a search year and applying for a new residence permit are on the website of the IND: https://ind.nl/en/work/Pages/Looking-for-a-job-after-study-promotion-or-research.aspx.

Question: (Last edited: Thursday, 29 December 2022, 3:27 PM)Residence Permit: How will it affect my student residence permit if I decide to stay outside of the Netherlands? | ||
---|---|---|
Answer: When you are holding a residence permit for study purpose, you may stay outside the Netherlands for a maximum of 6 months in a row or 3 years in a row each year for a maximum of 4 months in a row. As of 19-03-2021, the flexibility introduced by IND after COVID-19 that made it possible for the students to stay outside the Netherlands for a maximum of 12 months, comes to an end. Accordingly, the student who stays outside the Netherlands for more than 6 months is considered that he/she moved his/her main residence unless it is demonstrated in that individual case that student could not return to the Netherlands earlier due to unforeseeable circumstances, i.e. “force majeure”. A student who relocates his/her main residence loses the right to the residence permit. When should I come back?
Please note: It is not possible to return to the Netherlands after your main residency is withdrawn by the IND. This means that you cannot enter the Netherlands anymore. Consequently, a new visa application (TEV or VVR without MVV) must be submitted, which costs extra time and money for you. If you have any further questions, please contact Registry Department via registrar@wittenborg.eu. | ||
