I was just granted Finnish citizenship a couple of days ago and I learnt from migri that the citizenship is updated in the väestötietojärjestelmä same day as the citizenship granted. I aimed at applying for a Finnish ID card as well as passport but the status in the system was not updated. I ...

Our baby received his citizenship due to a citizen parent,
proved identity mid June decision made August
Calculator was saying 12 months then changed into 4-5 but decision was made even before that. I'm guessing new applications processed way faster than before


Nice to hear. Your post just ...

Hi everyone, the time calculator on migri website has reduced the decision time to "5 to 6" months for those who applied in enterfinland (not paper application). What happens to those who are waiting for more than 10 months already?
Is it adviseable to send an email to migri and ask? Ofc i ...

wow... what a pleasant surprise!


I proved my identity on 17.3.2020, thought there wouldn't be any news until early 2021. And now things turn up unexpectedly!

I don't know much about the crime rate in Sweden, But from the Swedish migration website it seems that you can just transfer ...

Hello,

We are moving (me, wife and 1 year old boy) to Finland in a few months. I am European citizen, can my wife (non-EU, non-US citizen) join me with Schengen visa and my son without need for visa as US citizen? Then we register ourselves inside Finland, right? Is a salary of 6000 euro gross ...

One thing I noticed is that from studyinfo, it says that migri has visited on the same day to check if the academic documents I submitted are valid.


Did you have to submit academic documents for citizenship application? I don't see any questions related to education in citizenship application ...
