Accommodation

If you and your family have relatives or friends with whom you want to live, you can do so. Then your parents must tell the Swedish Migration Agency where you are living, so that we can send you letters.

You and your family can live in different kinds of places

If you do not have anywhere to live, you can live in one of the Swedish Migration Agency’s temporary accommodations while the Swedish Migration Agency looks for a municipality that can arrange accommodation for you. You might live in a large building together with many other people who have also applied for protection, or in an apartment in an ordinary residential area. No matter how you live, you will be able to live with your family.

If you and your family have already lived in Sweden for a while and you have started school or your parents have started working, we will try to arrange for you and your family to stay in the same municipality in which you already live, but we cannot guarantee that this will be the case.
