-Also any educational period (PhD dissertation, medical specialization) is NOT considered as earning a living.

- If the persons concerned also resided in countries other than Slovakia, they must submit certificates from the relevant competent Greek Consular Authorities for those areas for the relevant periods.
-The documents are examined as a whole. In case that eventual missing documents are not covered by other documents proving the applicants' residence or occupation for the whole time period, more documents will be requested in due time.
