Regeringen vill skärpa villkoren för anhöriginvandring

The government wants to tighten family immigration with new rules that are expected to have a major impact on migration policy Under 2024 nearly 45 000 people came through family migration more than through labor migration Och Tide and the parties now want to see a limitation Refugee-related immigration when looking at asylum seekers quota refugees but also relatives of people with a valid asylum claim It's the lowest today since 1985 so it's a big change At the same time we can see that there are still relatively many residence permits for family reunification or dependent immigration which are often referred to in a rather vague manner Or more frequently and this investigation I received today even suggests stricter rules and conditions in several areas for that group The proposals in the report include among other things a two-year waiting period for individuals with a time-limited residence permit Before the application can be made there are stricter and recurring maintenance requirements and a limitation to the nuclear family There must be a job there must be an income there must be a home of sufficient size a settlement in Sweden If you only try it once the risk increases that things will change or that the setup is simply not good enough So there will be a waiting period and I think we will also have positive effects on integration in Sweden EU citizens are not affected and the proposals are considered to fall within the framework of the European Convention's protection of the right to family life We believe that the proposals we are making are within a margin a safety margin But we also have proposals in the report on several ventilation provisions to ensure that the right to family life continues to be protected Relatives in the care system should be limited to the nuclear family spouses partners and children We limit the possibility of bringing in future spouses for those who have a residence permit So that means a family that was not educated before coming to Sweden
