residence in Turkey through work

Applicants who want to migrate to Turkey through work (labor-migration) should be aware that they can get a permanent residence in Turkey after 8 years if their presence is legal and they have a valid job by the approval of the Turkish Department of Labor and Immigration. Then the path to get the citizenship of this country is smooth. But the presence of many people in Turkey may be illegal. Meaning that they use a tourist visa and engage in an illegal job (black work). In this way, they will definitely have trouble in getting permanent residence. It is a very important matter that a person’s work residence in Turkey is issued in accordance with the person’s employment contract. For example, if a person has a one-year employment contract, he can receive his work residence for one year. Of course, many people may think otherwise. For example, if they can stay/reside in Turkey as long as they want, they can get a long-term and permanent residence in this country with their presence history. But it is not the case. It is better to pay enough attention to these issues mentioned.
