My name is Jay, and I am an expat living in Portugal for the last three years. I’ve enjoyed living here so much, and I wanted to create a course to share just how easy it is for others to make this great country their home. This course walks students through the process of applying for an economic independence visa to live in Portugal. It also covers banking, taxes, and tax-preferred status for foreign residents. It outlines the process for purchasing a car and getting a driver license in Portugal. It goes over what options you will have for healthcare here in Portugal – including access to public health service. The final module goes over some different locations around Portugal that you may choose to visit as you search for your new home. I tried to include locations based on a variety of interests and financial needs. This course includes reflective activities, samples of documents, links to outside sources to assist you in the immigration process, as well as resources for contacts who can assist you with things you may need once you arrive in Portugal. Just a note, I am not an attorney or financial professional. This course is informational and reflects my experiences only. It’s always best to seek out a licensed professional before you make immigration or financial decisions.
