Norway has announced on April 18 that it will end the financial support requirement for permanent residence permits, allowing people to live and settle there more easily.
The Norwegian government has waived the previously mandated conditions of financial independence for applicants within the past 12 months.
Under previous regulations, individuals between the ages of 18 and 67 were required to demonstrate stable income during the previous year and avoid receiving government financial assistance in order to obtain a permanent resident permit.
