We Followed the Rules. Bulgaria Might Reject Our Residency Anyway.

We thought renewing our Bulgarian residency would be straightforward. We had the paperwork. We followed the requirements. We did everything we'd been told to do. Then a problem surfaced that no one seems able to explain clearly—and the possible solutions only raise more questions. In this video, I share what happened, why we're concerned, and the decision Jeremy and I have made about how far we're willing to go to resolve it. If you're considering a move abroad, this is a reminder that sometimes the biggest challenges aren't the ones you see coming. 00:00 The residency renewal process 03:35 Immigration 07:30 The first inkling of problems 16:10 Facebook 18:20 The variables that impact approval 20:42 What will we do? 24:48 Comments 26:10 Next steps 28:20 A cautionary tale #Bulgaria #ExpatLife #LivingInBulgaria #AmericanExpat #ResidencyPermit #RetirementAbroad #ExpatJourneyOnline
