How long i have to wait my Residence Permit
Hi Sahara,
It can take some time, but there is a "loophole" if you want to speed up the process.
Go there and ask to fill out a "speed-up" request. They will give you a blank sheet of paper, and you can write a reason why they should handle your case faster.
I just wrote that I´d like to be able to get my bank account and things running, and that was good enough. I am EU-citizen, though. Still, this shortened the waiting-time by a month.

Hi,...
Do you live in Espoo?
In espoo, the process is faster.
My friend took only a few day( so easy).
By the way, if you'r living in Helsinki...
That'll take so long. It can be a month up to 6 months.
I agree that speed-up letter is helped.
If you are in Helsinki, you should do too
Normally they will take your UVI if you have related documents those it need.
Anyway, you can try....
I don't know how it works.
Goodluck
