Residentpermit (Spouse of finnish citizen from Nigeria)

All the best to us all.I applied 4th of April 2019 on enter Finland was unable to get an appointment for submission and biometric up until june24 after that I was booked for an interview 11th of July 2019, surprisingly my application moved to the second stage a day after interview , hoping it's gonna move to the decision stage soon, it's so tiring because I have been on the processing since last year April 2018 to be precise. First I went through the legalisation process which took ages(legalisation of marriage certificate) after that we had to register at the Finnish population centre but that didn't take time.

Hello everyone let's share our experience to lighten us up a little bit, Here is what I experience , did you also experience the same? I receivedon't a mail from migri Thank you for using our e-service! Your application is now in Enter Finland and is waiting to be processed. You will automatically receive a message like this once every three weeks until a decision has been made in your matter. You can check the status of your application by logging into Enter Finland at any time. But this mail is contradictory to what is on my Enterfinland account, here is what is on my account 12/07/2019 The processing of your application has started. Contacting us does not speed up the processing of the application. If we need further information from you, we will send you a request through this service.Just confused as to which I should believe. ....... Please share your experience if you had or have similar experience thanks

Email is an automated message sent every 2-3 weeks, as long you don't have a decision on your application. It does not matter the status of the application, like waiting for processing, in progress, waiting for additional documents, etc
