Wanderer, it all depends on the canton where you will be staying.

I beg to differ, according to the Dutch, that table is relevant to any EU citizen and their EU or non EU family members who for instance would be economically self suffient or a student. As for a paid employee quoting from the link i provided earlier on; "Paid employment You are a citizen of the Eur...

OP might consider reading through the following link as well: http://www.ind.nl/EN/verblijfwijz...
SOLVIT has written that I need to earn at least 1230 Euros net per month (after tax) excluding holiday allowance in order to be eligible to bring my future spouse to the Netherlands.

Well, as at airport he will give a paper instead of passport, of course, he will attract sb's attention or would it be better to make a new passport at embassy? I don't know what to do. I don't want he would get a ban. He is leaving on his own will. Imagine a pair waiting for each other 10-15 years...
Note that she does not have to work full time in Holland. A part time job is also fine. Is studying ok too? Or must she be working? Cheers. To "pursue an economic activity" is usually interpreted to mean to be employed or to be self-employed. Remember, a part time job a a few hours a week is employ...
...Liechtenstein went on to join the EEA. Yes, and that´s really funny: Liechtenstein (FL) and CH have no checkpoints at their common border, as they form their own little internal "customs union". Specifically there are no custom-checks or passport-checks, it feels like a Schengen-internal border...
Quite a few members on this board, family members of EU citizens applied for their visas with just those documents. On the other hand some embassies do ask for health insurance, especially for family members that resides in countries outside of the EU. Bear in mind that on many embassies websites th...

The fact is, you are looking for a simple answer, and there isn't one! Why? Because you don't have a particular country in mind! This is why it has been suggested that you take time to trawl through various threads to see what different people have written about different countries. 'Difficulties',...
We finally decided to apply at the Czech Consulate for a schengen visa as a Non EU family member who is still waiting for the RC and you think what...

The following link from the danish site explains clearly how Danish nationals who have exercised a treaty rights in another EU country can return with their 3rd country family members under EU law back to Denmark. Suppose the same principle should apply to other EU nationals returning to their origi...

However , it seems following the Metock ruling, stude...
Well, yes and no. They have agreed to apply apply it even though they are not required to. They haven't agreed to apply it. They are only implementing the agreement on free movement of persons between the EU and CH that came into effect on the 1 June 2002, which provides fewer and limited rights th...
For directive 2004/38 to be applicable in CH, the free movement agreement between EU and CH will have to be modified. And considering some of the provisions provided in the directive some of the anti EU / foreigner parties in CH will most probably collect enough signatures to force a referendum on ...
