I cannot really suggest how you would find a job, pay rent or have a quality life unless I know what you have done and what you intend to do. But the one thing I can tell you is that if you have a Swiss passport, your wife and kid will automatically get a residence permit which entitles her to work/study. Once you have decided where you plan to live, all you have to do is go and register with the local canton for you and your family and you will get your residence permits. This is ofcourse with the knowledge that you have a Swiss passport and legal to live and work in Switzerland.

Did you mean you have a Swiss passport or were you referring to "visa" to live in Switzerland. If you have a Swiss passport (the red one with white cross) then you spouse can apply for a B-permit, which allows her to live and work in Switzerland - (https://www.bfm.admin.ch//bfm/en/home/themen/aufenthalt/eu_efta/ausweis_b_eu_efta.html, however if you only have swiss visa (the Schengen one) then your spouse will have to equally apply to the Swiss authorities for a spouse or accompanying visa.

Hello. I think the main answers have been given. It all depends on what kind of "passport" you have. Provided that you have the Swiss passport you will not have any problem studying of applying for a house or job. Now without any knowledge about your field of work or city you are planning on living it s difficult to answer. To be general, switzerland is a great place to study, work and raise kids. It s quite expensive but i think it a worth it. Take into consideration the cost of housing (around CHF 2'500.-) for a 2 bedrooms in Geneva or Zurich, the cost of mandatory health insurance (around CHF 300 per adult and CHF 150 per kid) and the cost of having your kid taken care of if your wife choses to work (around CHF 2000 for a full time, but it depends). These are all monthly costs.

Hello there buddy, I hope the answers here already provide you with the necessary guidelines. Studying and funding your life out there must be real costly from the start but with time I hope that you get some part time jobs so that you are able to cater for your needs. I think that there are a lot of franchises over there which can offer that facilities and also if you are good in photography do take a quick peek to start taking pictures for agencies this might not help a lot in the short run but you will surely have a revenue as Switzerland is visited by a high number of couples.
