Hi,
I am student in Finland, my home country is Pakistan. I got student residence permit in January 2020. my question is, I have not more interest in studies. I am earning very well as freelancer. I have three US clients. I am getting very good monthly salary. Can I register myself in Finland as freelancer ? can I get work residence permit or any other type of residence permit without completing degree. Thank you

Many people who quit their studies for quick money regret it later.misbahwali wrote: ↑Sun Apr 26, 2020 9:25 pmI am student in Finland, my home country is Pakistan.

How are you currently paying Finnish taxes on your worldwide income?misbahwali wrote: ↑Sun Apr 26, 2020 9:25 pmI have three US clients. I am getting very good monthly salary. Can I register myself in Finland as freelancer ?
As (student) resident of Finland you have to do that.
Why do you need a residence permit for Finland for your work when all your clients are in the US?misbahwali wrote: ↑Sun Apr 26, 2020 9:25 pmcan I get work residence permit or any other type of residence permit without completing degree.
Finland does not have a "sufficient funds" residence permit, and "I earn money on the internet" does not mean that every country in the world will grant you a residence permit.

"Freelancer with clients from abroad" is not something Migri easily approves an RP for.

To get a work residence permit, your work must require you to be present in Finland. Freelance with clients abroad does not satisfy that requirement.
