Can the student work? Under what major restrictions? What is the family position where clearly stated?

The holder of this student permit may carry out lawful paid activities for up to 30 hours per week without needing additional authorisation, either for the educational institution itself or for any other employer or contracting party, subject to the general rules for that contractual relationship. Exceeding this 30-hour weekly maximum may, by itself, be grounds for losing student status. A dependant of the holder may be granted their own Temporary Residency permit if their situation falls under numerals 1 and 2 of article 74 of Law N° 21.325.

How long does the status last, how is it renewed, and what officially documented post-study work or residence possibilities exist?

To renew, the applicant must show they are still pursuing the studies that supported the original permit, and provide documents evidencing their financial support. The permit may be revoked if the holder loses regular-student status, except where fortuitous event or force majeure applies. The official page does not describe a post-study work or residence pathway beyond continuing as a student. The official source does not state the permit's duration.
