Permanent residence in Israel provides the owner with multiple benefits and benefits from the state. Departure is best done under the supervision of experienced and qualified lawyers who will help you complete all the paperwork and save time and effort.

Ways to obtain permanent residence in Israel

The following can apply for Israeli permanent residence:

• Jews or people with Jewish roots. The "right of blood" in this country is of fundamental importance. If there is a Jew in the family, then departure to Israel can be carried out in accordance with the "Law of Return" of 1952. To start moving, you should contact the Israeli embassy in Russia and provide documents confirming blood relationship with Jews. Religion is also the most important factor. Even ethnic Jews who renounce Judaism are deprived of the right to move to their native country and live in its territory.
• People who want to work in the country. Highly qualified specialists with higher education can move from Russia on a work visa. To open this category, you should contact the Israeli Ministry of Labor. If a person's profession is in demand in Israel, they will open a work visa valid for 1 year. If desired, the document can be extended for an unlimited period.
• When deciding how to go to Israel for permanent residence, many people stop at the option of marriage. Marriage or marriage to an Israeli citizen does not automatically entitle you to residency or citizenship. Spouses will have to go through a lengthy and phased naturalization process.
• Elderly parents, whose only child lives in the territory of the Israeli state and is its citizen, have the opportunity to leave for permanent residence in Israel.

It is worth noting that studying at the country's universities does not give the right to move to Israel and obtain permanent residence here, since a student visa is valid for about 2 years. Israel is a state with a developed tourism sector, a high level of social and medical support, and extensive infrastructure opportunities.

Leaving Russia for the purpose of permanent residence in Israel is an opportunity to improve the quality of life and receive high pay for work activities.

After moving and registering a place of residence, a person does not need to renounce the citizenship of their homeland, therefore, residents of Russia who have decided to move to Israel do not lose the validity of their Russian passport. All documents submitted to the embassy must be original. You should also prepare a certificate of non-conviction for each family member. This paper must be translated into Hebrew or English, and also have a notarized signature.

It is worth remembering that the more complete the package of documents, the more likely it is to get the consent of the Israeli ambassador to leave the country as quickly as possible. Each country regulates its own rules regarding citizens receiving permanent residence in another state. In Russia, a person does not lose the right to housing or registration.

Moving to Israel and registering permanent residence for Russian citizens may simply be an excuse to acquire overseas real estate or employment.
