If you married you will get Kela card, if you want to have own private insurance it's your decision. Also with Kela you can claim unemployment benefits if you get into the integration program.

Only when legally living in Finland.
Which is the main question.

Unemployment benefits do not depend on being in an integration program.

An EU citizen married to a Finnish citizen must neglect being in contact with Migri to end up being illegally in the country (with national safety etc exceptions) as the first three months come without conditions and residence while Migri processes things is legal.

Spouses of Finnish citizens get a municipality of residence and are fully covered by the Finnish healthcare system.

When i called Migri they said just because of being married i cannot stay in Finland but I will get healthcare..a little bit complicated...
So if i should stay away from Migri where do i register myself? Registration Office?

Once you marry you can register right of residence as EU citizen. Register paper is issued normally on the spot when you visit Migri. Why you make it so complicated? 🤔

All foreigners must eventually register with Migri.

I got my right of residence after 2 months. Then I applied for my family. My child is also an EU citizen. They still didn't give him on the spot. I showed them where in there website says immediately. They said it means as fast as possible.
