Before asking questions here

9 years ago
This is a great resource. You probably need to study the Norwegian system and get assurances in writing for a bout two years before considering moving to Norway. You need to study to even know how to ask questions on here. This is a good resource

You will learn about the kind of obstacles you will face and you must decide if spending most of your time administering being a foreigner in a land where your native language isn't used to communicate with The State is what you want. personally, I wouldn't say it's a good idea. Remember, You're not Norwegian. People who "live" in Norway get benefits or Norwegians who live abroad and qualify. You will be obliged to pay high taxes and contribute top a National Insurance Scheme from which you may well be excluded from receiving anything with no permanent right to reside in Norway or get citizenship ... that's if you manage to get a job .... not straightforward if you're a foreigner.

I see a lot of questions here and see people destined to make appalling mistakes ... so ill informed they can't even ask the right questions ... assuming they will have the same entitlements as Norwegians.
