Hello everybody,
I have recently been granted a residence permit for family reunification.
I've tried searching the forum for any possible lists that may already exist as a to do guide for recently arrived spouses to Norway--I haven't been able to find one that already exists. I was wondering if any other person who has gone through family reunification could help guide me (and anyone who might reference this) through the bureaucratic basics for when you arrive. If a thread already exists, I'll gladly take that too. (-:
For now, all I can think of is:
go to the police department for your first residence card
go to the tax office to:
register marriage (if married abroad)
register your move to Norway
get a Norwegian Identification Number
exchange your driving license
sign up for a Norwegian language course/ history course
Is there any specific order that is recommended? Am I missing anything?

Regarding taxes, is it necessary to apply for a tax deduction card? Furthermore, if you are a US Citizen, do you pay taxes in Norway and for the US?
Any and all help/guidance is appreciated.
Tusen takk!
