REG: Denmark green card scheme and rules regulated from 1 Jan 2015

Hello All,

I am new to this Expat.com. I got approval of Denmark green card visa on 17 Dec 2014 and the new rules are regulated from 1 Jan 2015. My doubt is whether the old rules are applicable for me or the new rules of Jan 2015.

please can anyone solve this for me.

Hey ssp9999,
The new rules aren't applicable for you. By the way, around what date you are leaving for DK? I am going to DK in January end and would be good to be in touch with you. Add me back!

Ridhin :)

Hi
Just wandering if someone can help with my query:
Re bank statement: do I need to hold funds in my bank for the period until I get a feedback on my application?

Also if you may confirm processing time they take for greencard scheme?

Thanks
Ali

Hi Parakash,
Nice to know your case progress.. I have also applied for GC in Feb 14 and they confirmed receiving application just after the week.  they requested for further docs in october 14, i sent my docs in nov-14. after that just keep on waiting for any reply....did you read the new policies of GC. i am unable to understand that they have mention in the webpage that You cannot be granted a new residence permit under the Greencard scheme if, in the past five years, you have resided in Denmark on a residence permit under the Greencard scheme... any one can help with this

Good luck

Hi ssp9999,

According to the information provided on the rules on the site it says;
you still meet the previous extension requirements ,as this is the applicant's first application for an extension after 1 January 2015. Consequently, the requirement is having worked for a minimum of ten hours per week for the past 12 months. The applicant is granted a one-year extension , which will expire after 1 year. When the applicant applies for an extension after year, the present requirements must be met.

Hi,
this is nothing but in the past 5 years if you have resided in Denmark on a residence permit under GCS , you cant be granted a new resident permit under the GCS .

Hi,
It is always better to hold the funds in your account untill you get decision , they may do an enquiry.

Hi tata

Thank you for taking time to my query. Please can you also tell average time to get the application processed.

Thanks

Ali

Hi there my name is robin Thomas I am from India right now I am in Denmark

I would like to apply Greencard visa Scheme. I have achieved Master's Degree (MSc in Computer System & Networking) from University of Greenwich, London,UK. I spent three years there to complete that degree as well as some vendor training & certification. Before that, I have successfully completed 4 years Bachelor Degree (BSc in Computer Science & Engineering) from Chittagong University of Engineering & Technology,Bangladesh.
Could I have 30 bonus point with 50 point?
Could anyone please answer my query?

Hi there I would like to know few details about GCS before i even consider it for applying.
1) What are the current rules and
2) rules in terms of extension after two years
3) what is the scope of getting a job there?
4) what are the possibility of PR there and rules linked to it ?

Please do let me know if anybody have information on above mentioned queries.

Many thanks in advance.

Hello Everyone,

According to new rule, do I need to submit experience letter ? In the checklist of G1 I can see that they are asking letters only for EU experience in order to claim points under it.

Regards

Hello Friends

I have a query.

for those applicants who applied after Jan 2015, they need to earn 50,000 DKR per annum in 1st Year and 2nd Yr a salary of  DKR 315,000

So in order to be eligible for visa extension you have to earn around DKR 370,000 for two years

I am so surprised how is it possible for an expat to earn such a high salary

in my humble opinion for most green card holders, bigger chances are that they will have to come back after 2 yrs

What do you say friends?

Ali

Hello ahmadali new rules or old rules the rules follow everyone at the time of there extension's,as I think the rules and the amount they mentioned in the website I don't think we can get a extension the amount can be reached if they can get a professional jobs in Denmark,as u said everyone must leave Denmark after 2 years if they don't reach the amount mentioned in the website cheers:))

Hello everyone Dont get heart reading my message know how +ve u are thinking to have a foreign life. But these are facts happened to me give you below:

I came here 2 months ago and this is big scam which is call Green card here in Denmark. u don't even get odd jobs nor professional jobs,Danish language is very important for professional jobs and its not so easy to learn danish lang. min 2 yrs required to get grip on the language.Proc is here
1) as soon as u enter country u need to identify CPR, normally u get it where u live in here, if not u need to purchase from outside which is @ 600 to 800 DKK/month. Rent here 6K to 6.5K for a double bed room app. 2) Jobs: most of the Indians currently doing only odd jobs and i have not seen any of the green card visa holder in a professional job till date.I have applied for more than 1000 jobs and no job gave +ve response.

I'm sorry to hear that you struggle in finding an adequate job in Denmark.
I also think it's very brave and honest that you post your negative experience. It can help future applicants to prepare better for their transition. It unfortunately proves again, that language is the key factor in finding a good job and is often more important to employers than qualifications. It applies to most countries and is always underestimated! I hope you find a positive way foward and wish you good luck for your future !

As per the rules in 2015
I have only one doubt somebody please help me

HI Dejohndenny,

i have applied on the same Position on positive list for finance controller but i got rejected so please check, some people advised me only CA and it's related degree's is only valid but not sure about it, so i have appeal and mention that they did not mention any particular course is only valid. any way i am waiting for they decision mostly by this month. once i got it i will have a clear picture of it so if u can wait i can give me some information on it.


cheers !!!

Thanks for your replay
Sir I will wait until you got the visa. When you applied your visa this year or 2014. How long will take to get result

Hi,

Its a long story i have applied on 28 May 2014 got education assesment in june last week & got a refusal letter in 31st Oct 14 they have not awarded bonus 10 points for branch of study from positive list  and refused my application. And says my education is not related to any position in positive list. But in educational assement it says my education is recognized and accepted. So i have appeal on 17 nov 14 and still waiting for decision, so i mentioned my education is related to finance controller in appeal

In overall my experience from last year after checking with several people i have noticed one thing these people r giving visas to IT people with 2 monts and holding all other people for a long time i have seen from people from other education back ground got there visa rejected or it takes 4-6 months to aprove some of my friends who r from IT background got there visas with in 2 months even they dont got education assessment letter also.

Second major thing is they r not responding untill unless we call them again & again i have spent nearly more than 1500/- only to make calls to them to follow-up my case.

So my suggestion its better to look after other countrys which r better than Denmark i know European life is better than others because i was in UK for 5 year but these people r killing ages to provide visas.
