What happens after the request: registration, family handling, major support and rights where officially stated?
The Minister may, on the Committee's recommendation, grant the applicant a temporary residency permit for three months, renewable, pending a decision. The Minister decides within three months of the Committee's recommendation; no response within that period is an implicit rejection; if granted, a Residency Permit and residency card are issued. A recognised Political Refugee has State protection and rights including a travel document, a job opportunity (except security-related jobs), a monthly subsidy until a job is available, health care, education, accommodation, freedom of worship, freedom of movement and travel and the right to litigation, and may be allowed to bring his/her spouse and first-degree family members.
