**** I wish everyone expecting a decision all the best, endurance is the key ******

Yea I checked my queue number on many occasions, I had about 1180 applications before me. I think the queue system doesn't depict when exactly you get decision.

I applied 1 month ago and i have been in stage 2 for three weeks now.

I know why my case went to stage two though. My wife applied before me and my application went to stage two, the same day she received her decision.

Regardless of what, that is ridiculously unfair. Well, you don’t expect anything fair from migri anyway. Such a corrupt office.

I do not think this is at all related to when one gets the decision. This is an automated process most probably that is triggered for all family members once one of them receives a decision. I do not think that even the queue number in kamu is relevant and I think you can get a decision while you are 1000 or 2000 in the queue, because queue is not the only factor.


A friend of mine was in the second stage for if I remember correctly 5 months before receiving the decision.

Hey guys
I just logged in into my EnterFinland acc and it shows that I have zero applications pending / within the system. Is anyone having the same issue right now?

Hi everyone.

I truly hope a lot of you have gotten their desired piece of paper this year after I started this topic at the beginning of the year.

To conclude my story and this topic here:

I started my application this year and filled in on enter Finland web-page all required information and added the needed documents and I made a reservation at Migri to show my passport and language test results.

Then Covid-19 happened and due to the extreme high risk of my wife because of her cancer, I cancelled the appointment at Migri and put my application on hold (did not pay yet).

Then last September my wife died, not of the covid-19 but of the cancer we have been fighting for 3,5 years, this changed all.

I cancelled and deleted my application and newly made appointment at Migri again, now because accepting / acquiring the Finnish citizenship would mean I would need to give up my own country's citizenship, because I am no longer married (widower) (my own countries laws).

So I will remain a foreigner in this hostile environment forever or at least until all my kids are grown up and can manage their own life.

Leaves me to wish you all who are still waiting for a decision, the best of luck.
Although I do ask myself, why anyone would want to live here without being tied to this foreigner hating country (PS went up again in the polls) by marriage or family anyway.
If I had the choice, I would be gone: 10 years of teasing by Kekkonen era educated Finns as neighbours, sidelined from the working force by the prevalent "suhteet principle" in job economics regardless of your skills, being used as a slave by the system of free employment (työharjoitelu / työkokeilu) without the prospect of ever gaining full employment (illegal), the utter rudeness of the majority of the people around you, the tasteless food and the sheer evilness of family when it concerns inheritances... and last but not least, the f%#¤% language. No this would not be my choice to stay here...
However the wet (instead of dry and freezing) weather becomes more and more like feeling at my home country

P.S. and yes after 10 years, I do no longer feel Finland is my "home" country.... exactly why I did not want to give up my own original citizenship.

For all of you: stay safe and all the best...have safe holidays and a better 2021 for everyone
