New Processing Times of The Danish Green Card Scheme

As a result of the unpredictably high demand the publicized processing times have in some cases had to be extended by the supervision authority in Denmark, the Danish Immigration Service (DIS).

In universal terms DIS approximate that applications made in 2009 will be review as follows:

- In case, your application was prepared in the initial half of 2009 (i.e. January to June), then it will be evaluated in the fourth quarter of 2010, with a result expected in the fourth quarter of 2010 or near the beginning 2011.

- In case, request was made in the second half of 2009 (i.e. July to December), then it will be evaluated in first fourth quarter of 2010, with a result expected in the opening quarter of 2011.

For Danish Green Card applications made in 2010, DIS’ will in wide-ranging cope with the application within 6-9 months.

Please note that the Danish Embassy is not able to give information on the status your application.

Processing Time of Denmark Immigration

The Immigration Service of Denmark has received far more applications in the greencard scheme in 2009 than predictable. Therefore, the Immigration Service is at the back with the processing of cases and is functioning hard to decrease the number of pending cases in backog. This means that the usual 30 day service goal for utmost processing time has been suspended for the time being.

To avoid extra wait, ensure that your application contains all information and documents required by the Immigration Service to process your case. If your request lacks necessary information or documentation, the migration Service may prefer to refuse your application on these grounds. This means that your request will not be processed.

If it is essential to have your educational level reviewed by the Danish Agency for International Education, you will be informed by the Danish Immigration Service.
