Migri have updated estimated processing times at https://migri.fi/kasittelyaikalaskuri:
7-23 months for "general" cases
30 months for "difficult" cases

Interestingly that chatbot still gives 6-21 months for "general"

i think it will be updated soon, if they are still processing the May 2022 applications, then 23 months is quite logical. I remember few years ago the processing time was 24 months for "normal" applications. the lowest i have seen in 11 years of being in Finland was 17 months.

Much expected, and it will keep on stacking with the total applications applied weekly higher than the processed ones. Migri has to either employ more people or change the way they process applications. I am sure more statistics and analysis are done in this forum than in Migri"s headquarters. But as i said before, how do Finns solve problems: have a meeting, drink coffee and extend the processing time...

I have to say, you are missing an incredible important part in the "How Finns solve problems.."

The pulla!

I have actually seen migri hiring new employees with code red; but those positions were starting of May 24. It might be just summer holiday replacements but one might foresee that the backlog will be catastrophic if the number of new applications do not drop during the summer while 90% of migri goes on summer holidays.

I would love to know if anyone who applied around September 2023 and was granted with decision recently.

Hey, quite many. I applied end of September and my application moved to the second stage this Monday and I’m now waiting for the decision. Applications under diary number 12000 has been checked already I think.

Great to hear so. What was your queue number when it moved to stage 2? I applied end of October and would love to hear.

It was around 55** . But you should follow your diary number as that’s how they are looking. user justpassingby shares very valuable data here which helped me predict the exact week it was gonna be my turn.

Those who applied in 2022, what is your dairy number (the first one)?
I have 10xxx/310/2022

Looks like it is more important than a queue number

Thanks a lot. Mine was 81xx in Oct and now fall to 58xx in Mar. I did follow my queue every day (haha sound a funny morning habit) and build some sorts of excel modeling to predict myself, using recent experience by people.

Does the diary number ( the first part ) change during the process? like going down or up ?

If you mean the number like xxxxx/310/202x, then it should be the same during the process.

This week most of the applications that are being processed are between 12000 and 12150 with queue numbers between 5200 and 5500. So if your queue number is 58**, then I estimate your turn will come in 3-5 weeks.
My queue number today is 5876, so I kinda on the same boat

[kriffer]

Well, it's 21 months passed now and the queue is 155x ... applied in june 2022.
Anyone has any news about 2022 (spring-summer) ?
