Immigration & Aliyah

What documents do I need for a PIBA status change appointment in Israel?

At minimum: your passport in original (plus copies of all pages with Israeli stamps), current status document or ishur, biometric photograph taken within the past 6 months, completed PIBA application form, and proof of application fee payment (NIS 250-350 depending on category, paid at any post office before the appointment). Work-related changes also require the employer's heter asaka letter and signed employment contract. Spousal track changes require a marriage certificate with apostille and a certified Hebrew translation, plus evidence of joint residence. Bring originals and at least two copies of everything.
