Hello guys.
I am from Chile. I got my first RP (category B) in 2020 for a year until August 2021, however i have not traveled so far, as I joined all the lectures online. This semester I will study online too and will have completed 65 ECTS and I am planning to travel in July. In this sense, there is any problem with NO TRAVELING? I can travel at any time until the expiration of my RP? My RP is still active? When can I apply for the extension? I must be in finland for the extension or can apply from Chile when little left for the expiration? THANKS FOR UR ATTENTION

Re: RP for studies URGENT question
You can travel on any day the permit is valid. If you apply in Chile, it will be handled as a first permit. In Finland it will be an extension.intothewild123 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 16, 2021 11:15 pmHello guys.

@betelgeuse Thanks a lot for the response. In this case, I do not need to speak to the embassy or inform migri before leaving for finland, right? I am afraid that I may face with a problem in the airport in Finland...

At the airport they only check that you do have a valid residence permit.intothewild123 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 18, 2021 2:54 ambetelgeuse wrote: ↑Sun Jan 17, 2021 11:57 amYou can travel on any day the permit is valid.

Usually it would be a problem for the extension if you travel to Finland that late, but Migri knows that Finnish universities have switched to distance learning due to COVID-19.
