Hello everybody, I live in Finland now for 4 years, I came as a student to Finland after living 2 years with a residence permit type B me and my girlfriend got married, now we're married 2 years after our marriage, I switched my RP to family ties type A, I have passed my YKI TESTI already but im wondering if I'm allowed to apply for permanent residence permit or should I wait another year ?
Thanks for your help
can I apply for a permanent residence permit?

Re: can I apply for a permanent residence permit?
You have to have A permit for 4 years. B permit time does not count towards permanent residence. You can apply for citizenship in one year but permanent residence in 2 years.
