quote author=Wrap46 post=113703002]Hi everyone,


Just moved to Canada from Sweden after 8years living in Sweden.

I got this from a recipient of the SI scholarship.

When you're trying to relocate to another country as a black person, one question to ask is how racist the host country is towards us, black people.

We cannot say because we're tired of situations in our country and in our honest search for better life, we fall into the hands of people that hate us to the level of wanting to kill us.
That will be like jumping from frying pan to fire.
And racism was also one of the issues on my mind when I was considering which country I wanted to study in.

Now, there's one thing that Sweden did that endeared me to the country.
5 years ago, Sweden ran a campaign where anyone from any country of the world could call a number and speak with a random Swede.
Yeah, it was real.

The way it worked was, you call a special number (+467.... ), and you'd be immediately routed to speak with a random Swedish person, just any Swede in the country going about their day.
No other country has ever done that.

The campaign has closed now, but it demonstrated to me how open Sweden is towards people of other nationalities, no matter where they're from.
Another thing they did was quite remarkable.

At the height of the Syrian refugee crisis in 2015, Sweden received over 160,000 refugees from war-torn Middle East countries, looking for protection.

Alongside Germany, Sweden was one of the most preferred European destinations for refuge-seeking immigrants from Syria.

These were people from mostly Muslim backgrounds and Sweden opened its arms to them.

Swedish society is largely atheistic, most Swedes do not care about religion but there is freedom of religion.

Everyone is free to practice whatever religion they choose. There are churches here and there are mosques as well.

Oh. I also have some personal story to share about my experience with Swedish people.

When I was moving to Sweden in 2017, my university, Linköping University, arranged a personal free cab ride for me from the Linköping train station to the university campus
I got to the train station and the cab driver was already waiting for me with my name tag.
As I alighted from the train from Stockholm, an elderly tall Swedish man, seeing me struggle with my heavy luggages filled with local food supplies, helped me with one of the luggages to my waiting cab driver.
I mean I was far far away from home but these folks were treating me like I was royalty.
The man was a leader in the Swedish Church, gave me his card and we later met again after I settled down.

Even though he was an elder in the Swedish Church, not for once did we talk about religion.

That's how much respect these folks have for people's religious beliefs.

I got to the university, picked up my room keys, and my SI Scholarship debit card, and got another free ride in a Linköping University van with other new arrivals to my new accommodation.
I mean, my journey from Lagos, Nigeria to my accommodation in Ryd, Linköping, Sweden was already planned to a T, all thanks to the typical Swedish kindness.

Now, am I saying there's no racism in Sweden?

Of course not.

Racism exists in every country of the world.

However, the fact is, majority of humans are good beautiful people, and Swedish people are not an exception.

I thought you were only a weekend visitor lol. You don finally talk true. YIMU

Your nationality doesn’t matter in the kind of business you do.

Check the link for the requirements to get the business permit

There is no interview.. My Residence permit has been granted by the immigration, I'm going to the embassy for biometrics and to order for my residence permit card.

Victosa:
Do you know if it is an interview or just biometrics...sorry to ask, when did you apply? Are you travelling alone or with family?

That's not correct, what is important is paying your fees if you do not have a scholarship and showing proof of funding in your personal account they will definitely grant you the Residence permit and after granting you they will inform you to go and do biometrics in the embassy to produce your residence permit card

Mobil567:
At least 90% of applicants from Nigeria since 2020 ending till date have been asked to go for an interview. This is regardless of applying alone or with family.

Only scholarship holders are usually of that hook.

lol, joke of 2022.

Thanks y’all, I was here two years ago and loved the society. The place is very unique in its way. I love that they embrace your identity and welcome you with open hands.


Even for me way be swede think say people way dey here “är gallen” because of how welcoming people are here. Oppss being sarcastic �

this is completely false stop discouraging people on this thread you say 90% of Nigerians like you’re the one who processed their visa or like you know how every one got their visa. POV people get called for interview if something isn’t clear on their application hence if you apply the correct way you get your permit approved straight up Swedish migration agency doesn’t discriminate by country of origin.

You must have an issue with comprehension.
