The UDI has recently received a considerable number of applications from skilled workers who wish to study Norwegian, mainly from the Philippines. We have to investigate these cases more closely to ensure that the applications are in accordance with the rules whereby skilled workers can be granted permits for one year to learn Norwegian.

these lines they have always their website. but before last Friday they had after this lines . who is going to apply they should six month or longer. one of my friend

she applied in may she got result last week. i think we will get result in 4 months.

That's good news! Is your friend a nurse and does she have SAK autorisasjon already? If she applied in May and got her residence permit last week, it means UDI has continued to process. Although there is no processing time indicated in UDI website, norway.ph estimates it to be 4 months:

Processing Time

However, I have applied way back in March and still no reply until now :down:. Does anyone have the same experience? How long have you been waiting for your visas?

Did your friend follow-up? All I got was a generic reply from UDI. It would be helpful if members can post their waiting times and if they got replies. Thanks nayyar for sharing your friend's experience.

I recently emailed UDI about my visa and I was saddened by the reply.

Here's their reply:

We refer to your e-mail dated 13th September 2013.

Your application is still in process here at the UDI.

The UDI has recently received a considerable number of applications from skilled workers who wish to study Norwegian, mainly from the Philippines. We have to investigate these cases more closely to ensure that the applications are in accordance with the rules whereby skilled workers can be granted permits for one year to learn Norwegian. This means that people who apply for this type of permit must expect to wait longer than what has previously been the case for this type of application. The oldest cases are currently more than eleven months old.

Once we have processed the application, we will send the decision to you, via the Norwegian embassy.

Please note that, it is not necessary for you to contact us again until you hear from the embassy.

Best regards
