Reply To: Getting Bituach Leumi Coverage

yes i think so, but either way bochurim need a visa while studying in israel. But it will help them once they get married for bituach leumi. another thing that’s useful to know that it said on that website is that once someone gets engaged before they go back to chutz la’aretz for the wedding they should make an appointmetn at misrad hapnim for their wife to get a visa so that she doesnt have to wait another 2-3 months to get an appointment once she arrives.

once u have a visa u cant claim tax back
