First residence permit for the spouse
I am a Finn and we applied for the first residence permit of my wife in a Finnish mission abroad on late November 2019. We are still waiting for the decision. I was wondering if anybody with similar situation has got a decision recently. If yes when did you apply for it. It might help to know how much longer we should wait.
I know it's different case by case but it also great to know other's situation.

The usual time frame is anywhere from 2 to 12 months, however, due to the coronavirus situation there may be further delays. Which country did you apply in?Seekingforhope wrote: ↑Thu May 14, 2020 11:31 pmI am a Finn and we applied for the first residence permit of my wife in a Finnish mission abroad on late November 2019.

Hi, I applied on September 2019 and on May 14 my application moved to in progress phase. I think you might wait one more month for the next phase but I don't know how long will it take until the final decision.

Re: First residence permit for the spouse
Thanks. Since February, it's on the second stage for my wife. It would be great if you share with me when you get your decision. I'll try to do the same if something happens here.burcucoskunsu wrote: ↑Sun May 17, 2020 4:24 pmHi, I applied on September 2019 and on May 14 my application moved to in progress phase.

Re: First residence permit for the spouse
Hi again, my phase for second step took two working days. They checked my file on May 14 and I got the decision on May 19. By the way I applied as a cohabiting partner with 2-year rental agreement. Duration time might change if you're married. Sometimes it might take long if you've just married or if they need an interview. I downloaded all holiday pictures, flight tickets and hotel reservations when I was applying. Maybe this might be helpful if you didn't. I hope the best for you.

Re: First residence permit for the spouse
Did you apply in Finland? That looks like a smooth processing for being an abroad one, plus the fact that on April 29 Finnish missions abroad were most likely closed.darubillah wrote: ↑Fri May 22, 2020 10:14 am

Re: First residence permit for the spouse
Phase 2 waiting time took 6 days for me. They started to work on my application on June 17 and sent a request for additional information on 23. I answered to the request now, will see how long it will take. Idk if my spouse got a request as well, he's on vacation now...

Re: First residence permit for the spouse
Probably waiting time depends on how many 3rd parties they'd like to interrogate to solve your case, and how long it would take for them to respond.
