Common Life (marriage to Israeli)
According to Israeli law, those in a genuine and monogamous relationship with an Israeli citizen, may remain and work in Israel on this basis. It is necessary to prove that the relationship is genuine in order to secure such a visa.
Marriage is not a mandatory request and same-sex partners may also go through this process (However will face longer process).
Common Life Process is meant to test the sincerity of the relationship and it is mainly relevant to an Israeli citizen that married a foreign national.
