Hi Forumosa Community, My Wife and I are moving to Taiwan next month. She is Syrian and I am a Taiwanese Citizen and she is entering on a Visitor Visa. We would like to get her the 3 year ARC. Can someone tell me how we can maximize our chances of getting this? Is it possible for first time applica…

If you’re a TW citizen then why don’t you get a JFRV visa for her?

[image] Zapman: If you’re a TW citizen then why don’t you get a JFRV visa for her? What exactly do you mean by “JFRV visa”? A resident visa with the purpose of joining family requires a health check in the home country of the applicant / in the jurisdiction where the resident visa being ap…

So looks like final verdict is no real way to increase chances of obtaining 3 year arc at first try? Why would they provide the option for first timers?

She gets a marriage based ARC for 3 years after her first marriage based ARC for 1 year expires.
