First to say hello
I have only one question, but short story before that hehe.
I came from Serbia to Norway with my fiancée, who is Norwegian citizien. I dont need visa for staying up to 90 days in Shengen zone. We got married yesterday, without fiance permit, so we did it on my legal tourist stay in Norway. Now we want to apply for my staying in Norway, so we can live together. The question here now is this: Shall we apply from beginning ---RESIDENCE PERMIT TO ENTER INTO MARRIAGE--->>>FAMILY IMMIGRATION PERMIT, or we should apply directly for family immigration.
Thanks in advance

Do you have a marriage certificate and where is it issued from?

If it is issued from Oslo, then I think you can just apply for family reunification residence permit.

I would think that you can apply for family reunification right away.

If you submit your papers to UDI while in Norway, you have the right to stay and wait till the result is out.

but if you happen to leave Norway during the wait, you will not be able to return until the result is out.

your guess is correct: you cannot work while waiting for the response.

Get a work permit, then you can work legally

as others have pointed out in other threads, for example here:

it's not recommended to start the application process for a different type of permit when you've already submitted paperwork for one type.
