Directorate of Population and Migration, Sub-Directorate of Population Movements, Office of Work Permits, Family Reunification: individual files on the regularisation and introduction of immigrants (1989)

The series of archives inventoried in this deposit are the subject of a sampling carried out at the source by the producing service: 1 full year kept at the National Archives out of 5. This collection consists in individual litigations about work permits for immigrants in France, the regularisation of situations, introductions and temporary work permits. These are opinions given by the office in cases of first instance and hierarchical appeals submitted to the Minister of Labour: correspondence, notes from the Minister’s office, photocopies of civil status documents. The first part concerns individual regularisation files (numerical filing), the second individual introduction files (numerical filing), the third individual temporary work permit files (chronological filing) and the fourth nominal regularisation and introduction files (alphabetical filing), all in 1989. The files are not gender-disaggregated, but some contain information on women migrants.
