Applying for Citizenship 2024

[karhu86]

This week was quite slow tbh. Next week Vappu, following week helatorstai. For sure, there will be more slowness.

For those who wait for at least a year, how was last year July? Is it fully slowed down for July?

Last July my queue number moved by 50, it was a super slow month, but tbh migri has been very active lately compared to last year, and they hired a lot of people in december, so hope these people have finished their training and can join migri affectively

Hey guys
my application moved to stage 2 last Tuesday. I thought that I would receive the decision on the same day but still haven't received it yet. is this normal ?? my diary number is 133XX/310/2023.
what could they be investigating ? I'm from Egypt. I have been living in Finland for 7 years now. I have my job and I completed a degree here. is common that stage 2 could take a long time ?

I think that it is normal/many cases are similar to yours, you do not need to panic. And it would be more helpful to state dates instead of "last Tuesday" and to mention the date at which you applied/visited Migri or when your dairy number is generated (if no Migri visit is required). So one can compare your case and give you a better opinion. All the best

Sure It moved to stage 2 actually on 23/04/2024.
I received the diary number at late of October 2023, and I haven't visited migri. enterfinland told me that I don't need to do so.
I have lived until now 4 years B. and 3 years A.

Take a chill pill. Some of us are still waiting in Stage 1, since 2022 (August, me).

Hopefully we are going to be processed soon, as the waiting period is super long already… But of course, it depends on Migri’s speed of doing things …

Hi, Is it normal to have your queue numbers go down only about 100 numbers in a month (the first month) I applied mid March with queue number 89xx and after more than a month the queue number is 88xx. My diary number is in the 25xx/310/2024 range. Just looking to get any insight as to why has it been so slow or is it just the first month and so. Thanks

I came as a student and now I applied for citizenship with current A work visa and having reached residency period. How about you?

you made my day Auringon, i have been waiting endlessly since October 2022, and it is just funny to see people panicking after 6 months
Good luck for everyone really, but have mercy on the 2022 people

Is it stage 2 now or it’s stage 1 since October 2022 ?
If it is stage 1. have you tried to contact Migri and ask about what’s happening ? Because as far as I know typical period for an application to move from stage 1 to stage 2 is 6 months.

I think it’s totally unfair for migri to treat some applications in 6 months and leave other applications for 18 months. For me now I have been waiting for 6 months and I feel already that’s so long. I can imagine the situation where you have to wait 18 months. Migri should treat applicants equally.

Now it is not even 18, but whole 23 months

Also, just for the sake of the “documenting” this, my 21th month of waiting has begun

Is it still stage 1 ?
That’s totally unfair from Migri.
