Re: The averages utilities cost for apartment?


I'm moving to Finland soon and i wanted to get some official Finnish apartment renting websites that aren't the ones that google gives me when i google in english, because I'm pretty sure 3000 euros per month for a bed with a toilet next to it is ridiculous. I'm moving to Porvoo, with my ...

Finnish border could have an access to all your trips from helsinki airport and ship harbor from Finland at least.
There are usually no border controls inside Schengen, passports are not controlled when you fly to Spain or take a boat to Estonia.

Re: Applying for Citizenship 2024


Joining the journey to citizenship just now. I was wondering if anybody has experience with the automated decision making of citizenship. What was their experience like? How long did it took?

If a positive decision ...

Re: Applying for Citizenship 2024






Will the new automated decision making affect that? It can award citizenship within 3 minutes but could equally reject your application in 3 minutes due to not being in the country long enough. 460e lost and you have to pay again in two years time once you truly meet the requirements ...

Re: Deportation and residence permit precedence


Nothing will happen on Finnish side. They don't care about his military duty in Belarus. Only serious crimes can lead to deportation.


Such an answer is not helpful since you do not understand the questions raised.

This part of the question is not about a deportation initiated by Finland, it is ...

So we're thinking of a backup option; moving to Åland instead. My understanding is that if we move to Finland, I will get residency right away ...

Re: Options after cancelling of visa by spouse


Migri actually has precedents for deporting parents even when the children are Finnish citizens. According to Migri, one parent is enough. Your friend is a woman so hopefully Migri will be more considerate but I don't think the law guarantees anything.
