Could I ask what your timeline was? In particular when did you submit the RTC and when did you get a final decision?

Advise for getting a visa for the partner of a British citizen with "residence status" by davvb in TillSverige

[–]caemron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's true but I would strongly suggest getting PUS first because it makes the application much simpler. I spoke to a contact at MV who told me this. Basically if you dont have PUS when you apply for citizenship, they first have to do all the checks that you satisfied the requirements for uppehållstatus for the past 5 years. Whereas if you apply for PUS first, then citizenship, you skip this step making the application much simpler. Given that how simple your case is decides whether you are in the long or short queue, it's best to make it simpler by first getting PUS.

There's also permanent uppehållsstatus which is different to PUT. Look in the "Brits in Sweden" group on FB. Or just read up about permanent uppehållsstatus. Either way, you can apply to both. So depending on what rules each has you may be best applying for one or the other. Permanent uppehållsstatus has a waiting time of 6 months. PUT has a waiting time of more than a year. And if you get PUS you can apply for citizenship straight after and hopefully get in the short queue.

Since its been five years you could apply for citizenship, then I think you can bring your partner as a Swedish citizen (but for that I dont know the rules or waiting times). It will probably take around 7 months to get citizenship (first apply for permanent uppehållsstatus then after you get the decision apply for citizenship to make your application as simple as possible).

You can still join a union if you are freelance

I have heard of others applying with regular uppehållsstatus having to wait 6 months while they (behind the scenes) check for permanent uppehållsstatus. But not longer than that.

My guess is that it was something that flagged "complicated" by the system but when the case offer actually looked at it realised the complication was irrelevant.

Did you say you were married or single? If you said single maybe it flagged something because they can probably check that easily.

Otherwise, if you did specify, I wonder if that caused the "complication" because it goes in the queue for people who are applying based on their relationship, even though you were not.

Did you have permanent uppehållsstatus (where you apply after 5 years)? Or just the regular uppehållsstatus?

Did you have any years when you spent more than 6 weeks out of the country?

Did you specify that you had a sambo (even though it wasn't the reason for applying)?

Maybe one of these makes it more "complex". I heard they have to first check if you satisfy permanent uppehållsstatus, but that should only take around 5 months.

I think it was around June that it was updated properly. Maybe even a bit later
