Getting Norwegian citizenship just got easier – Life & Style

Norway has announced on April 18 that it will end the financial support requirement for permanent residence permits, allowing people to live and settle there more easily.

The Norwegian government has waived the previously mandated conditions of financial independence for applicants within the past 12 months.

Under previous regulations, individuals between the ages of 18 and 67 were required to demonstrate stable income during the previous year and avoid receiving government financial assistance in order to obtain a permanent resident permit.

The Norwegian Directorate of Immigration (UDI) is currently revising the guidelines on language training requirements for persons obtaining residence permits following 1 January 2021.

Approved sources of income to meet the financial criteria include employment, business income, pension payments, sickness benefits, loans, education grants, and introductory benefits.

Financial assistance in the form of out-of-pocket expenses or funds for essential needs such as medical expenses and educational materials is available for people experiencing financial difficulties during their stay in Norway.
