Immigration law in Padua

Residence permits, family reunification, citizenship and appeals for people living in Padua: applications that need to be set up correctly from the start.

How I work

Applications go through the Questura di Padova and the Prefettura di Padova – Sportello Unico per l’Immigrazione. When a decision is negative, the deadlines to challenge it are short.

I check the requirements before every step and, if needed, challenge refusals before the competent court. I can work with you in English, Italian or Albanian.

Padua is home to one of the oldest universities in the world, founded in 1222; its court falls within the district of the Venice Court of Appeal.

Common situations

  1. A permit renewal pending at the Questura di Padova
  2. A refusal or revocation to challenge
  3. A family reunification application at the Prefettura di Padova – Sportello Unico per l’Immigrazione
  4. A citizenship application that has stalled
  5. An expulsion order to contest within the deadline

Questions

Where do I challenge a permit refusal in Padua?

Usually before the TAR Veneto (Venezia), within 60 days of notification. For permits on family grounds, the ordinary court has jurisdiction instead. Check the deadline immediately on the decision you received.

Can you handle my case from Pistoia if I live in Padua?

Yes. Most of the work is done on paper and online; I arrange to attend any hearings and appointments that require it.

Which languages can we use?

English, Italian or Albanian.
