I am in love with someone from sweden. She is my whole world. but I'm in a different part of the world.
What's the best visa to apply for to be together with her, fast ?
Which one is the cheapest and fastest option?
Is it easier & cheaper to find work in Sweden and get a work visa ? so i can work and pay back the expenses to the employer?
The problem is I don't have a degree or any specialised skill set other than being able to speak in English and being a very talkative, friendly person.
I'd love some advice on this matter. thank you.

jr6aal8Getting married? Yes. You can. Just make preparations so it's ready for when you come.

jr6ap2nI can get married on tourist visa. go back to my country and apply for residence permit from my home country? is that how it works? is there a questionnaire or exam about the validity or integrity of the marriage or relationship and such ?
I'm afraid of the visa being rejected. we are long distance couple and have never lived together or met before in real life. only video calls and chats.

jr6bio3Yes, that's what you can do. A marriage in Sweden between the two of you would probably simplify the situation. The Swedish embassy in your country would call you for an interview later on and then you would be questioned. Your spouse would then also be called for an interview at the migration office where they live.
Another option would be a student visa or a job visa. Rejection is a scary subject.

jr6p620Don't listen to his advice as it would only be negative if you get married only after meeting for a few weeks.
It does not look serious in any way and the Swedish Migration Agency can actually reject your application to get a residence permit for your relationship later in the future.
What you have to do is apply for a visa to see her. 3 months is probably possible, there are also opportunities to extend the visa here in Sweden.
During this time, you get to know each other for real.
Then she should apply for a visa to go to your home country as well. So she gets to know you in your home country.
After this you can you apply for a temporarily residence permit here in Sweden because of your relationship.
After two years, you apply for a residence permit again here from Sweden and then they will again see that your relationship is actually still serious.
If the two of you have broken up before then or there is a suspicion that your relationship is not serious, you will have to go home again and lose your residence permit here in Sweden.
