I want to sincerely thank Latwy Start and especially Olga for the excellent work and support at every step.
Olga is a true professional and at the same time a very caring, attentive person. From the very start she guided me step by step: she helped me gather the documents and explained everything in detail, and then took on all the organizational matters and completely removed the stress that usually comes with such procedures.
I'm very happy to recommend her to anyone who values professionalism, reliability and a human touch. And I will absolutely turn to her again.

I got my permanent residence card (karta stałego pobytu) with the help of Latwy Start, based on my Polish roots. I didn't really look into it myself. They told me which documents were needed and where to go. Got it all done, and now the card is in my hands.

Łatwy Start is a great choice for an IT specialist, everything runs like clockwork. A big plus is the full transparency about how invoicing (faktury) and payments are handled.

I was applying for a permanent residence card (karta stałego pobytu), and Krystyna guided me through it. Everything was fine: a friendly attitude, all the information provided on time, and clear, detailed explanations. The whole process went smoothly and without any unnecessary stress.

I want to leave a review about Latwy Start, and specifically about working with Olga. She is a true professional and a very pleasant person.
Olga helped me at every stage: from gathering the documents, where she constantly advised me and sent examples of how to fill them in so everything would be perfect, all the way to the visit to the urząd (office), where she went with me and completely took away the stress that comes with the procedure.
After I submitted the application, Olga kept me regularly updated on the status of my case and did everything she could to have it processed faster.
I'm incredibly happy with her work and will definitely turn to her again. Today I picked up my first card, valid for 3 years, and I know for sure - without Olga I wouldn't have managed!☺️

I'd like to leave a positive review about this company's services. My curator was Olga. I got my residence card (karta pobytu) and I liked everything: I received information about all the details, Olga answered every question, even the silliest ones) Nothing was forgotten, the result - the card - is in hand, I recommend them!

I'm giving 1 star. I was planning to start working with them through the incubator. I sent 3 messages - by email and through the form on the site, messaged them on Instagram, made 2 calls (no answer). I wasted a week waiting. They simply ignored me. How can you trust this service if the foundation can't even reply to a message and send documents to review. Waiting for an explanation.

I highly recommend Łatwy Start! Thanks to them, my two kids and I received 3-year residence cards without any stress. Special thanks to manager Kristina — she was extremely helpful and even managed to speed up the process for my children. Excellent service, very satisfied!
