A total of 21,748 people had been given deportation orders by the Migration Agency at the end of October – the largest number in history, the Aftonbladet tabloid reported on Friday.
Of those, 14,140 are registered by police as 'departed' or 'wanted'. Some are believed to still be at unknown locations in Sweden while others are thought to have left the country.
"We simply don't know where they are," Patrik Engström, head of the national border police, told the newspaper.
The rest of the individuals either remain in refugee centres, are in custody, or are living in separate accommodation which they have arranged themselves, awaiting deportation.
The government has previously announced it wants to step up efforts to ensure people without legal right to stay in Sweden exit the country. But police say most of its resources are currently devoted to carrying out ID checks after Sweden stepped up border controls.
"It's a huge task and it is completely dependent on the police being allocated resources," said Engström.

The Local reported in May that an increasing proportion of refugees due to be deported from Sweden were instead disappearing.
Last year the proportion of those leaving the country voluntarily after an expulsion order was 41 percent. Some of the remaining numbers were forcibly deported, but in most cases the refugees went underground.
The Migration Agency said at the time that the vast majority of the "disappeared" were Dublin Regulation cases.
Under the Dublin Regulation, refugees should be deported back to the first EU country they entered, often Italy or Greece, which have the worst welfare provision. But if refugees can delay their re-applications by 18 months, they may be able to stay in Sweden, hence the motivation to go underground.
It is often difficult to deport refugees directly to their home countries, which in many cases refuse to accept them.
Sweden is doing great if they only lost 14,000 - In the United States, millions and milllllions are unaccounted for ....
Taking these immigrants in considering the world situation is just idiotic.
What happened to Lucy Hamilton? She used to be all over these threads but I haven’t seen her in a few weeks.
Zotted.
Follow the welfare checks.
They may be ‘lost’ here in the USA for the moment.
Once The Great Deportation begins there will be a hundred million pairs of eyes looking for them.
What on Earth did she do?
She started calling people names and getting hysterical.
I did see that happen a few times. Unfortunate that she didn’t have enough restraint. But then again we are over here while she’s right in the thick of it. Her posts were refreshingly conversational and interesting.
Be a shame if they were to “disappear” permanently, if you get my drift.
In a far-left socialist/communistic type small country where almost everyone who is legitimately there is in 1000 government data bases... and where almost every transaction of daily life is capable of being computer monitored in real time... and where almost all legitimate residents speak fluent Swedish............
if the Swedish govt suddenly “can’t find” 14,000+ enemy Islamonazi infiltrators.... it is because the (sold-out-to-the-enemy) treasonous Swedish government officials are hiding them, do not want to find them
pray for Sweden that its people wake up, rise up, and force the traitors in their government to repatriate all the Islamics to their own countries ASAP!!!!!!!!!! All political differences aside, Sweden was once a great nation... and has been a very nice place for its people to live and for civilized tourists to visit
Incorrect, my FRiend: unaccounted ONLY when it comes to immigration enforcement/etc. When it comes to the Census, they are front, center and COUNTED.
/s....I wish
Like several ‘western’ countries I could name, the Swedes are ruled by a government that totally ignores the wishes of the majority of the electorate.
This might explain the big rush on sombreros and serapes down at Nogales.
I see.
Yes, in USA our govt used to be reasonably responsive to the citizens..... but in the last 7 years especially all it does is LIE and mislead and weeaken us in every possible way imaginable.......all to SELL OUT our country to enemy interests
the modern golden rule...Money Talks, everything else Walks
great!!, a fifth column, ready to take over political power when called to rise-up against the established government...
