Do the Swedes agree with their government’s migrant payout scheme | DW News
The Swedish government is offering to pay migrants $34,000 if they go back to their home country.
The conservative government’s migration minister said this was part of a paradigm shift in Sweden’s migration policy. Migrants who leave voluntarily can apply for the $34,000 starting in 2026. That amount is 35 times higher than the existing grant, which has been in place since 1984.

So wait a minute Swedish politicians use the hard working people money to maintain illegals and now they are using the same money to kick them out ?
Looks like the voting pools don’t look to good for them 😂 they are desperate
Dumb of Sweden showing sign of weakness! U have to be harsh and hard on the migration issue to discourage those who consider coming to Sweden! This will be misused and abused! Sweden – wake up, u will be the ones at loss here if u take this peaceful and tolerant path!!!!
Lol 😂 the world belong to no one
Do they need to pay taxes on that?
How to make your own problems for no reason
Why pay them pick and ship to any other muslimville country.
Seems like people in power are practically waving goodbye to our cash while giving us the middle finger, like, 'Thanks for the donation, now watch us do the exact opposite of what you want!
The biggest bruh moment
We pay quite high tax in Sweden, I find it outrageous that the government is wasting it on something that is not required. Just deport those who are associated with gang crimes or other violence already. That will be a start!
you brought them yourself, and now things is falling apart sad
Open the deal to everyone. Immigrants and citizens.
That’s less than 1 year pay 😂
There are a lot of so-called "expats" in Sweden from North America. I wonder if they might suddenly remember that they are immigrants after all. This is just more xenophobic racist nonsense from Sweden's radical right arm of a shockingly incompetent government.
We are family of 10 I want 340k
habibi come to Sweden 🎉
All politicians have corrupted taking bribe from Qatar and Arabs.
Man, i wish its for tourist too? I will visit sweden before camping around europe 😂 I understand if it was britain, france, german or any other former colonial powers to at least return some of wealth they have stolen, but i dont think sweden used to colonise other nations.
This is laughable 😂😂😂 how much more foolish can EU leaders be 😂😂
Take the 34k fly to Mexico and enter the US far better place than Sweden.
Thats not a lot of money . Cant even buy a proper house in Jamaica 🇯🇲
I wish that someone give me 34000 USD! I'M a German and my government not care about people like me!!! We don't receive NOT Help! I know many people that it's without job and have children and nobody helps them!!!But Immigrants receive 3,000 EUR without never working in Germany!😮 OUR GOVERNMENTS GIVING SI MUCH MONEY TO THE CRIMINALS!!! 😮😮😮😮
Two yrs before you can apply. Maybe Sweden is banking on the fact many will not even apply for the program in 2yrs. It sounds like a marketing ploy really.
Shame on you
lol
Ja det gör vi.
Take the money and invest in your own countries.
Who would take 34k and return to Haiti, Congo or Gaza etc.?
We do not have the details worked out..😂 Their going to have immigrants leave and in 2026 add into the the policy leaving many who have left out of luck.. and out of Sweedan!
Are they going back to open Racism?
What will they do with mix race swedes?
Will white swedes be visiting Africa and the Caribbean for vacation ? And will they be welcome there?
Seems xenophobic of them to do this.
Great idea👌 Now Germany needs to adopt this. 😂🤑
100 out 10000 in
I am a retired American. I am packing my suitcases and heading to Sweden.
This makes no sense…..
All the Dr.’s and professionals should take the money and go.
Sweden is selling,the Caribbean is buying trouble
I'm curious, is this about illegal immigrants only or all of them? I see people saying "end their benefits instead", which can't be done for people who are there legally, they also pay taxes.
I'd love that money from my government so i could leave for good! Also how effed up to see such an amount being given freely out of taxpayers money😂 – thanks to democracy 😅
hahahahahah 34,000 usd is not money. what cant you do with that , cant buy a house or even land with that .
India is coming to a doorstep near you Sweden 😂
Pay me out and il come back affter 2years 😅😅😅😅
in short "ethnic cleansing "
🤔
Why would they take only one years free salary (immigrants call their benefits ”salary”) when they can stay longer and receive more? It’s a complete waste of Swedish taxpayers money. Also there are almost 1 million immigrants that are completely unemployable. This madness has to stop!
European citizens and their politicians should wake up giving immigrants money to leave your country can't solve the problem China is one point something billion people them are moving forward Europe is not up to that and them are crying colonial master time is coming Europe is going to be like Africa european think them are ok but their not China is going to destroy european market very soon
Spain did that and didn't work because when they realize how much they spend they need immigrants to work and pay taxes so they can recover the money 😂😂😂
😂😂😂 sounds like I should book a ticket to Sweeden
