Dependents Applications together with Work permit app

Post new topic

Hello Everyone!

Does anyone know while applying work permit is it also good to include dependents at the same time so we all get a decision and VISA at the same time  :unsure ? We lived in Norway before but my wife had to wait for 8 months to get a VISA after an interview. This time we don't want to take a chance since we have 2 small kids.

In my case its a inter company transfer and my company is processing my application on behalf. Since me and my wife already have DUF numbers which means all the personal data will be in their system already. Do you think this will speed up their decision making?  :unsure

Any advices are appreciated!  :top:

Hi, I think the kids are under a different visa category like Family Reunification

Those family members entitled to residence permits when all conditions for a permit are met are:

A spouse or registered partner over the age of 18, when the couple plans to live together in Norway.
Cohabitants over the age of 18, when the couple has lived together for at least two years and intends to continue their cohabitation.
A cohabitant over the age of 18 who has children with the person in Norway, and the couple intend to continue their cohabitation.
Children when both parents have been or will be granted residence permits in Norway.
Children who only have one parent resident in Norway. It is a requirement that the parent living in Norway has sole parental responsibility or, if parental responsibility is shared, that the other parent gives his or her consent.
In addition, parents may visit their children (regardless of the children’s age) in Norway for up to nine months, either together or separately. It is a requirement that the parents return to their home country after the permit has expired. The permit does not entitle the holder to work in Norway. Parents can travel into and out of Norway for as long as the permit is valid. The permit cannot be renewed, but parents can be granted a new nine-month permit when they have stayed outside Norway for at least one year.
