I have applied as a job seeker but received a job offer. How do I change my application?
If you applied for residence as a job seeker but receive a job offer before your application is processed, you can change it to an application for residence as a skilled worker. You can do this free of charge in the application portal.
You need:
- A signed offer of employment form (pdf, 1,6 MB)
- A short note requesting that your application be treated as an application for residence as a skilled worker
- Your CV
How to do it:
- Find your application in the application portal
- Click “Upload documents”
- Upload the job offer form, your note, and your CV
You do not need to contact UDI. Once you have uploaded the documents in the portal, your application will be updated and processed as an application for residence as a skilled worker. It will not be considered a new application, so you will keep your place in the processing queue and will not have to restart the waiting period.
