The importance of being EURES: free movement of persons in Europe

The purpose of the EURES Job Mobility Portal ( http://ec.europa.eu/eures/home.jsp?lang=en ) is to provide information and e-services for the benefit of jobseekers interested in finding a job abroad, employers interested in finding candidates from other countries as well as any citizen wishing to benefit from the principle of the free movement of persons.

The EURES Job Mobility Portal provides access to job vacancies published by EURES members and partner organisations, in particular the public employment services in the participating countries.

Waiting for InCI's approval of my Angariador process

As you know I managed to send all relevant paperwork off to INCI almost 2 weeks ago. I'm not sure if I should be concerned yet that I haven't heard from them regarding the payment for my license? I just wondered if you knew who I should be chasing as I really could do with it so that I am in a position to invoice before the end of the tax year... I.e This month!

You'll probably know in fact - as I have all documentation and am now registered as an Angariador Imobiliario at the Finanças, even though I haven't got my license yet am I in a position to pass an invoice to receive commissions?

...

This is a tricky issue to answer.

• First, protocol in any public entity does not operate by standard time.

• All Public entities have 30 days to reply, although in this particular case one could say that InCI would have 20 + 10 days to answer you.

• Thus, it is reasonable that you have been waiting up until now.

• As for invoicing, from a strckly fiscal point-of-view, you have initiated at the Tax Return Office the activity; from the legal regime which binds us to InCI, one must waiting until paying the rate of inscription as an angariador and then invoice.

• On the other hand, InCI represents the State; The State revenue is through taxes (IRS, IVA, etc) and is pleased to tax you.

• Lastly and legally one can write once more to the public entity, after the 30 days without a reply to the first request (whatever this may be), stating that as one has not received a formal reply, the request one has made is to be “tacitly approved”.

Taking all this into consideration, if after 20 working days, since one has sent formally the process to InCI and has not received a reply, one could be led to writing invoices.

I believe it up to you to use caution and seek advise at APEMIP’s office in Vilamoura.

Presenting different useful continuous training solutions for credits and license validity

What are the best and most practical solutions for continous training in real estate and achieving the needed credits for InCI?

The standard mode is to do 30-hours of traditional classroom sessions and thus attain 6 credits. APEMIP and several training companies across Portugal offer very sleepy and get-your-paper solutions. REP can do this, has done it, but our principle differs from these trends.

The most graceful solution is simply to take the exam in its continuous mode, as this is valid for the entirety of the 3-years of the license or enrolment at InCI. And cheap: 25 Euros…

What I do is I have a standard refresher course which takes you through the motions, new changes in the laws etc. It can be done as a whole or in units.

Egs. (from last exam training)

- Lynne took the full refresher course and passed.
- Helena started with a unit (3 sessions and use of online campus, plus the 3 session before the exam itself ) and then decided to add another unit (3 more sessions) to the initial unit of training. She also passed.
- Albertino did 1 unit purely online (He was in Gibraltar) and passed.

So you see we can work round your necessities plus desires and fit them into helping you pass the exam.
