Reserving a time at Migri/residence stuff?

I just show up usually to renew my permits. Is there a website that you reserve a time? Enter Finland doesn't work for family ties it says so I have no idea. With them changing to a new place, can you still just show up? Do you have to reserve a time?

Thanks!

Thanks! So the Migri will have a new booking system? I have to go in spring, just trying to understand all the changes. It seems they're changing it every week and it's driving me a bit bonkers. So no visits to the police for anything anymore? We have to go to Helsinki for just a card renewal? (if you live near it I mean..)

Thanks!

Yes, Migri will have a new system. It's currently not ready yet, but the plan is to have ready before December.
Since you're thinking of booking an appointment in spring, I'd say wait a few more weeks until the new booking system is announced, then you can book your appointment there.

Oh no, you can show up whenever. It's just that this means you'll have to wait several hours in the queue, and case officer receiving your application will retaliate by not deciding on your residence permit card renewal application at the time of submission, which means it'll enter the queue, which means it'll take months.

Yes, they do that. They have the right to do that if they suspect that your application requires further checking. They invoke this right if they don't like you, such as if you yell at them, or if you're annoying, and in many cases if you go without an appointment.

But yeah, if you're not in a hurry, then waiting is a wise choice in this case.
