I am from Pakistan, have Bachelor's Degree in journalism and working in insurance industry for the past 7 years. I am seriously interested in moving to Iceland. Can anyone help to get the related information, esp.on some kind of program/visa that can help me work and enchance my studies at the same time? Thanx

NOBODY can move to Iceland. It's one of the purest, most homogeneous populations on Earth, and they keep it that way. You're welcome to visit, though, if you can get a visa, but you'll have to leave.

Disregard the ridiculous answer that you received above! Of course you may apply for a residency permit BUT, if you really want to apply for a residency permit and you reside outside the EEA (which you do) then you need to apply FIRST in your country before you travel to Iceland for your stay. If you try to apply for your first permit while you are already in Iceland, they will send you back. It's all spelled out in the Directorate of Immigration, which I have included as a link below. I suggest you read through the entire website, as there is a lot of pertinent information about both Visas and Residency permits. I hope this helps and good luck....it's a beautiful country and can see why someone would want to move there. Here is the link: http://www.utl.is/english
