"These relaxations, which do not compromise security in any way, are intended to prevent applicants from losing their entitlements. In particular, they can lose their jobs when their residence permits are not renewed on time, which is something we want to avoid."
"Nunez admitted that waiting times continue to grow and promised that he would boost staffing levels in the préfectures' residence departments."
"Rights organisations have accused the French administration of creating undocumented people through such long delays in dealing with applications."
France's Interior Minister Laurent Nunez revealed a significant initiative to reduce delays in obtaining or renewing the carte de séjour residency permit. He acknowledged that waiting times are increasing and plans to hire 500 new staff across the country's 101 préfectures. Additionally, he proposed easing some administrative rules, such as extending the interval for fingerprinting from five to ten years and eliminating the need for long-term residents to register address changes. These measures aim to prevent applicants from losing their jobs due to permit delays.
