I am currently trying to plan a 1-year trip to Slovakia, probably with my teenage son, to spend time living there and getting to know my Hungarian relatives and do research on a book on our family history, as well as to learn both Hungarian and Slovak. I will be working for an American company out of my residence while I am living there. According to information I have received from the Slovak embassy, as I probably won't have a Slovak employer and the research I plan on doing is not going to be sponsored by a college or other type of institution, I would need to obtain special permission from the Department of Alien Police.
Can anyone tell me how easy or accommodating they are to deal with?
