American with EU fiancée in Denmark - Easiest place for us to live?

9 years ago

Hi There!

I'm an American citizen currently living in the US. and my Danish fiancée (currently living in Denmark) and I would like to be on the same continent! It sounds so simple when I read it out loud, but of course nothing good comes easy!

We're getting married this summer and I've been looking into the family reunification visa that Denmark can offer married couples, but the requirements are quite strict. So this got me wondering: Since Denmark is a member of the European Union he can live and work anywhere within those states, correct? So really, HE could live and work anywhere within the EU.

So this is my call for help: if I decide to move to Europe, could anyone give me advice on where the best (easiest?) place for an American to get a visa to live/work? We're up for anywhere.

Thank you in advance!!
