Hi all,
I'm a newbie on forum but I see that you really help eachother. I just wanted to ask a few questions about residence permit. (not specialist)
Last summer I visited Finland for touristic purposes also I met with a few companies about my expertise. One of these companies want to hire me now. We signed a contract, they sent me all the documents what I need for application. I applied to the embassy last week in electronic format.
- Application still on "waiting for process" step. So I understand that evaluation period will start after I visit the embassy physically. I thought they will start the process with the documents I sent in electronic format but there is no action till today. Does the process really start after I visit the embassy?
- How long does it take to get a decision? I mean approximately. Starting date seems 1st of Feb on contract but I wonder if I can get a result before this date.
- Is there an interview or do I just have to prove my identity wtih my passport and the hard copy documents?
- My education still continues but I have good experience on my job and they hired me because of my skills. So if you have to give a number about my application, what is the percentage to get residence permit?
Thank you
Edit: Btw I'm NON-EU

There is no work skill evaluation for work permits. You don't mention your field of work so it's impossible to guess how the labour market investigation ends up.seti wrote: - My education still continues but I have good experience on my job and they hired me because of my skills.
