Moving to Norway with my partner

Post new topic

Ben_89_NO

Me and my partner are planning to move to Norway in the beginning of next year, we are both EU citizens. I want to immigrate as an employee and my partner wants to immigrate family member of an EU national and she wants to find a job when we're settled a bit.

The UDI site is a bit confusing and I have some questions:
- Can we hand in both application at the same time?
- Will we receive the answers at the same time?

The reason I ask these questions is that we really want to move there together and that could be a huge problem if that's not possible.



Tusen takk for hjelpen!

Hi Ben, how are you doing ?

You posted months ago, i might be a little late  :( , if you are both EU citizens, it shouldn't be a problem. I thought UE citizens didn't have to apply for immigration but only register with the police 3 months after arrival.

How did it go for you if you don't mind me asking ? Did you apply through UDI ?

Is your expat project still ongoing ?

Cheers,
Anoushka

So long you're European citizen and your wife are in order. And if you've a work contract, logically everything will run smoothly.
