Several major changes to the Aliens Act are now taking effect. Among other things, permanent residence permits for asylum seekers are being abolished, while a new good conduct requirement gives the Swedish Migration Agency greater leeway to deny or revoke residence permits.
Under the new legislation, permanent residence permits for asylum seekers will be replaced with temporary permits. At the same time, the asylum process is set to become faster and more transparent, reports Göteborgs-Posten (GP). Among other things, the proposal calls for clearly unfounded applications to be rejected at an earlier stage, the introduction of border procedures for applicants from countries with low approval rates, and clarification of the burden of proof.
In addition, identity checks are being tightened by requiring that fingerprints and photographs be recorded for asylum seekers aged six and older in order to prevent identity fraud and repeated asylum applications.
Sweden Democrats describes the reform package, claiming that Sweden now has ”the EU’s most restrictive immigration laws.” According to the party, since the 2022 election, the government and the Sweden Democrats (SD) have gradually dismantled the previous immigration policy, which the party claims has contributed to asylum immigration now being at its lowest level in modern times.
New Good Conduct Requirement
Another key change is the conversion requirement. The Swedish Migration Agency can now deny applications or revoke residence permits following a comprehensive assessment of a person’s behavior, life situation, and contacts. Criminal activity, ties to criminal circles, and unpaid debts are examples of circumstances that may be taken into account. The law also applies to individuals who have already been granted residence permits, even though the Swedish Migration Agency has not been tasked with conducting general reviews of previous decisions.
– It’s about a person’s diligence, integrity, and adherence to the rules, says Lisa Bergstrand, unit director at the Swedish Migration Agency, told GP.
At the same time, she emphasizes that the agency will not review all previously granted residence permits.
– We do not have the resources to review all residence permits. Nor have we been given any such specific mandate. However, permits that have already been granted may be reviewed when other authorities provide information regarding poor conduct., says Bergstrand.
Prominent SD Figure Maria Falk comments on the change at X.
”Today, permanent residence permits for asylum seekers and their family members are being abolished. A better Sunday, in other words.”, she writes.
The deportations aren't actually carried out. Those in the deportation holding cell can stay here and live off us.
Detain everyone at the Miggvwrket facility indefinitely and review all cases from 1990 onward.
That is the only way we can solve these problems created by liberal evil...
THAT IT'S SO DAMN HARD to close the Swedish border FOR GOOD and, first and foremost, deport 800,000 illiterate people plus EVERYONE incarcerated in Swedish prisons.
To be fair, between 1.5 and 2 million people should pack their bags and move back to the MENA region.
THANK YOU & GOODBYE.

I don't think much of Maria Falk. Typical SD member, globalist.
