Hemlös

Hey, I moved to Malmö a few months ago and stayed with my uncle. Due to an argument, I've lost my accommodation with him and become homeless. I have a coordination number and hold German citizenship. Currently, I'm attending SFI and applying for jobs. My question is, what options do I have or where can I turn to in order to find shelter?

Hello!

It sounds like you are in a difficult situation as you describe yourself as homeless at the moment.

You write that you have a German citizenship. As an EU citizen, you have the right to work, study or live in Sweden without a residence permit. The right for EU- citizens to stay in Sweden without a residence permit is called right of residence.

You have the right of residence if, for example, you are an employee, self-employed, studying or have sufficient funds for your livelihood. If you have a right of residence in Sweden, you do not need to contact the Swedish Migration Agency.

Some municipalities have municipal housing agencies where you can apply for housing. The municipality can also give you tips about private landlords.

You can contact the social service's housing reception for an application and further advice. You can reach them at Sallerupsvägen 11 D Malmö, Phone number: 040-347557.

EU citizens coming to the city have the right to an assessment of their urgent needs if the needs can not be met in any other way. In the city of Malmö, EU citizens can turn to Social emergency in urgent situations. But that is only for urgent needs, if you can not provide for yourself, you need to return to Germany.

Advice and support center for EU citizens. The city of Malmö and Skåne Stadsmission run the Crossroads business. They offer free breakfast every day of the week, access to toilet, shower, washing machine and clean clothes. Visitors can also get support and guidance in contact with Swedish authorities and healthcare staff.

At Crossroads, staff speak several different languages. There is also a nurse from City Mission Health on site.

Right now, Crossroads has premises at Östra Farmvägen 12.
Winter shelter Winter night
Vinternatt is a winter shelter for vulnerable EU citizens located by the Europaporten at Stadiongatan 25 A in Malmö. They are open from 1 January to 31 March from 20:00 to 07:00.

We hope you have received an answer to your question.
