Time periods and computations of time

 

 Česky

Computation of time periods for performance of certain acts in the proceedings is governed by Section 40 of the Administrative Procedure Code.

If any doubts concerning meeting deadlines exist, i.e. the post office might have lost the delivery note for the rejection of the application and fails to find it even after complaint and the applicant lodges an appeal (it is therefore clear that the decision has been delivered to him/her, but it is not clear whether the appeal was lodged within the deadline), the deadline shall be considered to be satisfied unless proved otherwise (see Section 40(2) of the Administrative Procedure Code.

If the MOI CR sets a deadline for performing an act, e.g. eliminating errors in the application within the bounds of necessity and the applicant applies for an extension of the deadline, the MOI CR may, after administrative consideration, reasonably prolong the deadline (unless this involves obvious intentional prolonging of the proceedings).

The standard periods allowed for issuing a decision on an application for residence permit are stipulated in Section 169t of the Act on the Residence of Foreign Nationals.

The time period for issuing a decision under Section 65(4) of the Administrative Procedure Code ceases to elapse for the period for which proceedings have been suspended. The time period for issuing a decision ceases to elapse from the moment at which any grounds for suspension specified in Section 64(1) of the Administrative Procedure Code have arisen (e.g. proceedings have been suspended due to proceedings underway regarding a preceding matter and were commenced prior to submission of the application – the time period for issuing a decision therefore did not start to elapse whatsoever). If proceedings have been suspended, the time period for issuing a decision will expire no earlier than 15 days from the date on which the proceedings ceased to be suspended; this applies also in a situation where proceedings have been suspended when the remaining time period for issuing a decision had been less than 15 days.

The time limit for issuing the decision ceases to elapse also when the application is imperfect and the written notice about its deficiencies is issued.  The time limit will start to run again as soon as the deficiencies of the application are remedied or when they are not remedied and the deadline set out by the notice expired.
