Applying for Citizenship 2024

[quillcentaur]

I find it really funny how migri monitors your travels to decide whether you have established connections with Finland or not. I know a guy who came here for a job, applied after 4 years, got the citizenship and moved to another country
Seriously sometimes i just wonder about migri's logic

It is pretty standard in many countries to check how much you travel before getting citizenship. As an example, even Australia immigration does the same. It’s even worse there. Even when you have permanent rp in australia, you can essentially lose your rights to travel after five years, unless you apply for another kind of visa just to travel outside and get in again (which is expensive) or get citizenship. But yes immigration rules in many countries can be really difficult. I hope we all get citizenship decision soon!

For those who have gotten a decision, did your Migri reminder email change during the month that you finally moved to In Progress? I received a different email today and I'm wondering if it is a sign that I will move to In Progress very soon. Thanks.

No, they send that "different one" once in 6 months

How does the "different email" look like?

What I receive today is just "Hakemus odottaa käsittelyä / Waiting for processing / Ansökan väntar på handläggning
", the same one that I receive every 4 week. I am applying by the end of October and also waiting now. Current queue is 55xx. So nervoussss.

[jokulalala]

Oh I just realise that it looks a bit different email, although the subject looks the same,
So it has now some text like
Your application is waiting to be processed. We will inform you when the processing begins.
and please update something like source of income, travel information while waiting.
Not quite sure if it is the sign or it was just that they change the text for everyone.

I don't think it is a sign of anything.
Migri messages are explicit enough to understand what they are about.
If the application is moving to stage 2 then that will be mentioned in the email.

Also, if someone has doubts about their application status then they can go to enterfinland.fi and see both their application status and log of all events happening to an application.

Thank you. Then it seems that people receive it every 24 weeks as explained by broccoli.

Yes, this is the one we got too. As others have said, it is probably not a sign of anything. However, since they send it roughly every 24 weeks, it also coincides well with the timeline of cases that get their decision around 55xx on the queue. Hoping to get a decision soon.
