well , i really dont believe in lithuanian immigration office , their system is like that , they always issue 1 years for the 1st 5 years , and they can refuse at any time they want.

i know a lithuanian lady , married with a brazilian , and they have 2 children , her husband got 1 year visa , he succeed to renew 3 times , at the fourth , they refused to renew. without any clear reasons...

That is pure nonsense and they should be reported to the EU commission.

Code: Select all

I suggest you tell your friend to make a complain to the EU, first I hope your friend is currently residing in LT cus if not...that might be the reason they reduced your lenght of stay.

However, family members should be issued a 5yrs residence under EU law. NO STORY.

Besides filing the complaint they could ask assistance from Solvit Lithuania.

Is there any solution already in their case?
