According to The Local (http://www.thelocal.no/20151207/more-asylum-seekers-want-to-leave-at-norways-expense), a Norwegian newspaper, Norway is offering asylum seekers (http://www.foxnews.com/world/2015/12/07/norway-offering-refugees-free-flights-thousands-dollars-to-leave-country/) thousands of dollars and a free flights to leave as the global refugees crisis heats up.
"A family with two children is eligible for up to $9,300 dollars – and free flights home, the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration told the media outlet. More than 900 people reportedly have accepted."
“[Refugees] thought that when they came to Norway they would get protection rather quickly,” the head of The Norwegian Directorate of Immigration’s return unit told local broadcaster NRK, The Local adds.
But applications take years to process and the growing number of refugees fleeing conflict from the Middle East don't want to wait.
“Earlier this year, the number [of applications] was an average of 100 per month. In October, there were 150 and in November there were 230 applications,” the International Organization for Migration spokesman Joost van der Aalst told NRK, The Local reports.
Norway also has a problem housing the refugees. Many can only find places to leave in remote places, making it hard to find work.
The Norwegian Directorate of Immigration may also reduce the amount of economic support the country offers to asylum seekers.
