A recent report by the Swedish National Audit Office has criticized the Migration Agency for its excessively long processing times for citizenship applications, with many cases remaining untouched for over four years. The agency's emphasis on management by objectives promotes prioritization of simpler cases, leaving more complex applications in significant delays. As a result, applicants face uncertainty and are denied opportunities in employment and civic participation. Although a legal provision allows longer-waiting applicants to expedite their cases, the majority of such requests are denied, contributing to a concerning two-tier system of processing.
The Swedish National Audit Office highlights that the Migration Agency has unreasonably long processing times for citizenship applications, leading to significant delays and uncertainty for applicants.
According to the report, many citizenship applications are dormant for over four years, with a worrying distinction made between simpler cases and those needing further investigation.
