HOW DOES THE SWEDISH MIGRATION AGENCY ASSESS YOUR CASE?
Legal requirements and evidence
The Swedish Migration Agency makes an individual assessment based on legislation and case law.
Factors that are often considered include:
- the credibility of your account
- documents and evidence
- ties to Sweden
- employment and financial support
What matters in practice?
- Clarity: Is your application consistent and logical?
- Evidence: Can you support your information with documents?
- Timing: Have you acted within the correct deadlines?
It is not only what you say, but how your case is presented, that affects the decision. For you, this means that every detail can matter.
HOW A MIGRATION PROCESS WORKS - STEP BY STEP
From application to decision
- The application is submitted.
- Additional information is requested if needed.
- Investigation and interview.
- Decision from the Swedish Migration Agency.
- Possible appeal to court.
What does this mean in practice?
The process can take time and may be difficult to understand. We help you understand what happens at each stage, what is expected of you and how you should act.
Time matters – why acting quickly is important
Many cases have clear deadlines. Waiting too long can mean that you lose the opportunity to influence your case.
COMMON MISTAKES IN MIGRATION CASES - WHAT TO AVOID
- submitting incomplete or contradictory information
- missing deadlines
- not understanding what the authority is asking for
- acting without legal advice
These mistakes can harm your case, sometimes decisively.
What happens if you do not act in time?
If you do not act in time, you may lose the opportunity to appeal a decision, or your case may be decided on incomplete information. In some cases, a deportation decision can become final. Acting at the right time with the right evidence can therefore be decisive for your future.

COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT MIGRATION LAW - ASYLUM, PERMITS AND APPEALS
How long does a case take?
It varies depending on the case and current processing times. Some cases may take a few months, while others can take significantly longer. The timing is affected by factors such as the complexity of the case and how complete your application is from the start.
Can I appeal a decision?
Yes, most decisions can be appealed within a specific deadline. It is important to act quickly and make sure the appeal is correctly drafted, otherwise it may be rejected without being examined on the merits.
