Resident/permit decision waiting time

Then last week they emailed him again to ask for his last three payslips. He submitted this to MV and the same day I got two emails from MV: 1) request to submit additional information; and 2) request to contact the Swedish embassy in my country to make an appointment for an interview.
MV is working through their current backlog and they are really driving effiencies. I guess at this stage because they are trying to clear backlog there isn’t clear cut processes like before when the volumes were much less.
All the best! Hang tight it will all work out, it is only a matter of time! 🙋🏻♀️🧘🏻♀️

We had same experience from you.. they emailed my fiancee and asked for payslip. Then after a day, i recieved an email to contact swedish embassy. I did the interview and just waiting for their decision.
When did you do your interview? Are you waiting for a long time since then?
Sometimes after or before
Normally after is when they are close to making a decision

I applied online and now waiting for the decision, I am wondering if anyone has any information to share regarding the moving process specific about interview, what is the common questions they usually asking about it in an interview?
Do they asking for extra documents or fees in an interview or in biometric ?
Regards

How Can I book for the interview?
When you get this email you contact the embassy with your case number /check number saying you have been asked to book for an interview then embassy will give u the date for interview
Good luck

How long does it take? How long does permit card valid?

Normally the permit card is valid for 1-2 years then you apply for extension which if you were given ut(1year) they give u another 1year .
If they give you 2years (tut) then they give u permanent residency ,
With that said you have to stay in the same adddress for two years with your partner in Sweden in order to be given a permanent residence

Good luck to us and hopefully I have answered your question

will update when I get an answer also fingures crossed for you ☺️I have heard that some people have got 5 year permit card. Is that true?
Good luck to us

UT – residence permit (uppehållstillstånd)
TUT – temporary residence permit (tidsbegränsat uppehållstillstånd)
PUT – permanent residence permit (permanent uppehållstillstånd)
The applicant applies for UT and Migrationsverket determines if one is granted TUT or PUT (depending on one’s case).
Good luck 👍🏽
Good luck hun
Thanks in advance and looking forward for answers

Salwahallison did you receive any feedback yet from MV? Anyone else with any news on their decision?
Looking forward to hearing from all of you 🙌
🤞🏽Sarah
Good luck everyone we have postive answers soon in sha Allah

I applied for the residence permit to move to my spouse on October last year. I had my interview and biometrics taken on May 18th this year at the Embassy of Sweden, New Delhi, India. I am waiting for the decision now.
I am a little too sad that it’s summer time now, I hope this doesn’t slow down the decision making.
Good luck to my fellow companions waiting for their decision. I hope it happens soon for you all
