How does a new family become a European?

Usually, if you have both the conditions of permanent residence in the country and permanent residence in the EU, you can decide which status to apply for. It must be pointed out that there is no concept of permanent residence in the immigration laws or residence laws of foreigners in many EU countries. If such countries meet the requirements for permanent residence in the EU (residence time and language test) after living for five years, they will directly apply for permanent residence in the EU, and of course have the right to live in the country as permanent residents of the EU.
