If you are applying for a permanent residence permit in connection with the extension of your residence
permit, you must also send in documents that show that you can support yourself or are exempt from the
maintenance requirement (this does not apply to children under the age of 18).
- If you are employed, you must enclose a certificate of employment and your three most recent salary
specifications.

corporate tax certificate, the final tax notice for the previous income year, a copy of income tax return

enclose documents that show that you cannot meet the maintenance requirement on the grounds of a
lasting functional impairment, illness or other limitations, such as a decision on the right to sickness
allowance or activity compensation from the Swedish Social Insurance Agency, an investigation from
the Swedish Public Employment Service or a doctor’s certificate.
