On Dec. 10, there will be a new proposal in Danish parliament to include education towards the work requirement for permanent residency.

Denmark has some of the strictest laws in the entire European Union for permanent residency- and some of the most restrictive laws for spouses of citizens. I paid tuition and worked part time while studying in Denmark, but I experienced two massive changes to the PR laws in 2016 and in 2017, that uprooted my path to living in Denmark permanently. In 2016, the government decided that education should no longer count towards permanent residency. In 2017, they decided people should be in Denmark at least 8 years before applying, with 3,5 years continuous work history at the time of applying.

When the pandemic hit and I lost my job, my path again to permanent residency was destroyed. I decided to leave Denmark and study in the Netherlands. This will secure my rights to be with my Danish husband under European laws, and give me the security I need to reach my full potential.
