May 3, 2023 Sweden proposes to suspend applicants’ “right to request to conclude cases” for Swedish work permits and citizenship On 3 April, the Swedish Migration Agency, the Swedish National Courts Administration, and the administrative courts in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmo submitted a proposal to the Swedish Ministry of Justice to temporarily suspend individuals’ right to request that their work permit and citizenship applications be adjudicated within four weeks, if the applications have been under review for more than four months (for work permit applications) or six months (for citizenship applications).
