The Swedish/Danish conflict

Combined news from Sweden and Denmark; the Danish right-wing party Danskt Folkeparti (DF) thinks that Sweden accepts too many immigrants. Ther main problem with this arise due to the Nordic agreement stating that Nordic citizens may move around freely within the region. This means that Swedish immigrants move to Denmark supported by a Swedish paper and Denmark has to let them in. This is really the back door in - many of these immigrants have previously been declined an asylum in Denmark...

This does contain a grain of truth and is, after all, a rather bizarre fact. What DF wants, is to stop the entire Nordic cooperation. This is not just stupid, but idiotic...

Relating all this to my own affairs, I mean - I'm a Swede working and currently living in Denmark. After a lot, I mean A LOT, of trouble, I got a Danish personal number in order to work here. (Firstly, they registered me as living on my own address, which was changed ten phone calls later.) A while ago, I got this lovely letter from the Swedish tax authority, kindly reminding me to notify them about me moving out from Sweden. Moving out from Sweden forever.

Well, I sent them an e-mail, called them and sent them a letter t sort it all out. I meant then I was not to be removed from the Swedish national registration since I'm only staying for two months. In order to be removed from this register, you need to stay abroad for at least one year.

Considering the issue to have been dealt with, I forgot all about it.

Yesterday, I got another letter from the Swedish tax authority. "The tax authority has decided to deregister you from the national register as emigrated the 9th of June 2007. [...] According to a report from the register in Hillerød municipality you have been registred as immigrated to Denmark the 9th of June 2007. The tax authority has therefore registered you as emigrated."

I'm gonna call them now, since it seems as Sweden has accepted too many immigrants and now need to throw someone else out...

(The funny thing is that the decision is based on the first registration, the one where I had my own address, not a "c/o" one. So now I'm not permanently registered anywhere. Currently, I don't have a country at all...)

And by the way, I hope you're all enjoying the muddy Roskilde. They are promising rain for the next ten days, too. It's not getting better...
