Hi,
Does anyone know how much time does it take to receive the license from the socialstyrelsen?
I'm in a quite stressful situation right now as Im not an EU citizen and my visa will expire in a month in the EUcountry that i am in at the moment, after which i should leave for another 3 months to a non-EU country before i can come back to europe again with a 3months tourist visa. It's frustrating but what can i do

Anyway, my next question is: when i do get the license, can i go to sweden and look for a job there? Does this also provide me with some quite of visa on the grounds of being a qualified doctor to work in Sweden?
Also, Im not sure to send my documents to the socialstyrelsen by post or to go to stockholm in person? does it make any difference?
