Family Reunification
Support with residence permits for spouses, partners, children, and family members moving to Sweden.
Meet the maintenance requirement correctly
Applications based on family reunification often turn on the maintenance requirement. The person living in Sweden usually needs to show sufficient income and adequate housing for the family.
The Swedish Migration Agency reviews employment contracts, pay slips, and housing documents carefully. Cases are often delayed or refused because the evidence is incomplete or poorly structured.
We help present the financial and housing evidence in a legally clear way so the application can be assessed on the strongest possible basis.
Checklist for family reunification
- Confirm that the reference person in Sweden has sufficient recurring income.
- Review whether the home meets the size and standard requirements for the household.
- Gather employment contracts, payslips, and housing documents before filing.
- Clarify the family relationship with strong documentary evidence from the outset.
