u/Alinoshka

Dual EU-US citizen married to a Swedish citizen who moved in 2021 from a non-EU country. I’ve been working since early 2022, so I hope this helps even though things are very close to changing.

I really relied on these posts for my sanity during this whole process, and noticed there were some similarities timeline wise between me and other posts on this sub.

I could have written this in Swedish, but I figured I would write this in English since this is r/TillSverige
