Seven employees at the nursing home in Harads have been told that they must leave Sweden before the summer. Brigetta Basta and Usama Tanyos have struggled to learn both Swedish and a new profession.

"I've learned Swedish, I work and contribute to society. Now I feel like I'm being punished for it," says Basta. Hijjfa missed the time to convert her asylum application into a work permit application, so she was expelled after a miss when her application was to be converted to work residence permit.
