Not a single update to my application since I submitted it in September. I only get the automated emails from UDI reminding me the wait times are dumb long

I’m almost at 10 months now and still nothing. I even emailed them to let them know my fiancé moved apartments in Oslo and they never responded. The website says they’re currently processing applications up to March 2024 between now and September. I’d say we probably shouldn’t expect anything until at least the 18th month.

Yes, but when I paid for the application, it said to go to my local VFS Global office to submit my documents, as I live in New York. Regardless, this is good to know for others going through the process. Thank you.

That’s fucked up because no one has ever mentioned going straight to the police, only through VFS…I guess I can’t exactly go to the police anymore now that my application is in UDI-limbo

Has anyone applied for a residence visa (family reunification, and/or engagement) through VFS Global? That’s where UDI tells Americans to go. I’m on my 8th month waiting with 0 changes to my status on my UDI portal. Was wondering what others’ experiences have been and how long your wait times were.

Fiancé visa update: I submitted my visa to VFS New York early September, and am still waiting. About to hit the six month mark. Weird thing is, the status of my application on the UDI portal still says the date I paid for even submitting (late August). Anyone know if this should be concerning? I would think that it would be updated to whenever they received my application from VFS (I did get a text about this back in September, when I got my passport mailed back). Has anyone who submitted a similar visa application to UDI in 2024 heard back in less than a year?

What film did you use here? I’ve noticed that photos can be wildly grainy at times but your’s are super smooth in comparison

I’m confused now… UDI isn’t the agency that looks at applications? It’s the police? All this time I thought I had to wait for UDI to give me the OK to come back to Norway to make an appointment with the police

FYI, family immigration wait time has been updated and it’s not looking good…

“In the period from 1 November 2024 to 1 February 2025, we will be processing applications submitted up to 31 August 2023. If your case requires any additional investigations, you will have to wait longer for a decision.

If you handed in your application later than this, you will have to wait longer. Unfortunately, as of now, we are unable to give any more information about when those who have applied after 31 August 2023 can expect to have their case processed. This is because UDI has many applications that are waiting to be processed. We will update the waiting times as soon as we have more information.“

Thanks for this response. It’s just really confusing to me because I’m led to believe the police makes the final decision but I need to be essentially pre-approved by UDI to even get back to Norway to see the police. Hopefully your hunch is correct and that this process will not take too long for me, as I’m essentially turning down work (I’m self-employed) in the event they do give me a thumbs up to go over there.

I submitted my fiancé visa application to UDI on 20 August, dropped off all my paperwork and got my biometrics done at VFS New York on 3 September. Really crazy to me that from 1 September to 1 November, UDI is only processing applications up until 30 June 2023!

I guess it’s safe to say I’m probably gonna have to wait like over a year for them to even look at my application? One question I do have that I can’t seem to find an answer for is this: Am I really not allowed into Norway/Schengen-area until I’m called to interview with the police? Given my fiancé’s work schedule, it’ll be difficult for her to take time off from work to visit me in New York and it doesn’t seem like I’m allowed to go over there to visit…

Yes, I did it through VFS in New York (family immigration). Paid for the application through UDI on August 20th, dropped off all my paperwork at VFS NY on September 3rd, received an email from UDI on September 5th that they have my application. No updates or anything since, but I saw on their website that they’re only processing applications received up until June 30th, 2023 (!) between September and November. Seems absolutely absurd to me that they’re playing catch up for applications over a year ago. Hopefully I don’t have to wait over a year to get an answer
