What is the 8000kr you meant? Do you mean the application fee you paid to apply for Fiance visa? That is just an application fee and not a fee to pay for social welfare benefits.

You need to wait for your visa to approve and apply for a D-number. With the D-number, then you might be able to go and see a GP.

anyway, even if you don't have anything, you can still go and see a GP but you will have to pay private fee rate.

Seeing doctor is not free. There is a co-payment system. Only if you exceed the annual amount, then your visits and medical prescription is free. There are also some requirements, eg. maternity visit to doctor is free etc.
