Update on my application submitted on 20.5.2021 and identify proved on the next day:

Initially the queue position reporting was working for a week or so and then from the beginning of June until 12.9. the service wasn't working. Since September when my application was at position 5107, then 4825 on 12.10.2021 and 4518 on 12.11.2021 the average drop seems to be around 300 per month. Probably there would be some slowing around Christmas. If I assume the general observation that as a EU citizen I'm going to get a decision around position 2700-2800, I believe it to be reasonable to expect that the decision is going to come out around April or May next year.
Somthing that I dont understand about the queue number.I applied 25.05.2021 my queue number is 4315 I checked this morning. You have applied that 5 days bfore me how come my queue number less than yours?
It is because you submitted your application on 9.5 and zoeker2 submitted his/her on 20.05, so there's 10 days difference and you're in fact ahead in the queue.
Date of submission matters more than date of visit at Migri

The processing time for your application will not be longer even if you cannot prove your identity immediately.

Once you have proven your identity, your application will be processed on the basis of the date on which you submitted the application on Enter Finland. Applications are taken up for processing on the basis of the date when the application was submitted.

For example, if you prove your identity on 1 October 2021 and you have sent your application in Enter Finland on 1 April 2021, your application will be taken up for processing on the basis of the date 1 April 2021.

Your application will not expire and you will not lose your money even if you cannot prove your identity within 3 months of submitting your application. The time limit for proving your identity has been extended until 31 August 2021.

My application was submitted before that, still no sign of getting decision. I believe alexilaiho also has been waiting since Feb :-?

My place in the queue moved 40 step during the past 2 weeks >< wonder if anyone experienced the same?

My application has moved over 100 steps in the queue. Is you country on the list or do you think that your case may be complicated for some reason?

I have applied February 8th and still no movement. Country not on the list. One person I know got the decision recently having applied in end January 2021.

I am currently 2639 in the queue and I've also noticed that the queue has barely moved in the past weeks/month (similarly to 40 per two weeks). I had assumed that as you go further down the queue it gets slower...

I am going to say this once again:

something people should know and stop posting about the queue: it IS NOT an indication on the process speed of any application. It just depends on which office (and type of queue) your application ends up, and this varies by different factors: whether you came to Finland with a residence permit or not and if you have a valid passport.
