I am applying for upper secondary school, but my residence permit expires before August 2024. Can I get confirmation from UDI that I have applied for an extension?
No. The Government has decided to extend the collective protection scheme for another year. Your residence permit will be extended automatically. This means that most people who were granted collective protection in Norway will automatically receive an extension of their permits when the current ones expire.
Consequently, you cannot apply for an extension and UDI cannot provide confirmation that you have done so.
The new permit will be valid for one year from the date your previous permit expires.
