Hello, my boyfriend is a Danish citizen and I am a NON EU citizen. I'm going to study my Master's degree in Denmark under a student visa. (1) Can we get married while I'm there under a student visa? If so, once married, and still on my student visa, (2) is it possible to apply for "family reunification" as a "spouse", while I'm studying? I ask because I've read it's not possible to work while waiting for the permit but what about studying for a master's degree that started before the family reunification application? Finally, (3) do the two years in Denmark as a student count for the 4-8 year residency to get a citizenship? Thanks a lot for any guidance!!

As you are legally in Denmark, you are allowed to marry in Denmark.And you can also apply for a residence permit on grounds of marriage if you fulfil the requirements.

Thanks a lot for this reply!

As a foreign master's student, a person can work up to 10 hours a month with the right work permit. If i could get a student job like that, and once married we apply for family reunion, can i keep that job? or does the prohibition to work that comes with the family reunion application prevents me from keeping the student job?

You can easily have two kinds of residence permits at the same time. One does not overrule the other. So therefore it's not a problem.
