I think you need to do it for 5 years to get PR.

Thanks for your input bro,
I am thinking towards Finland 🇫🇮 Do you have any input regarding Finland?

What you said is also what I have been thinking, though they might not buy the idea of Finland because it’s relatively a small country and small economy compared to the uk.

Finland just updated their permanent residency laws. It's now 6 years to get PR and it's exclusive of schooling.

Omho aside that you need to learn Finnish and have a job paying you at least 40k euros. They also reduced their refugee quota to 500 per year.

Go with Netherlands or Estonia


You go like am there more especially if you're into crypto


If you're poor af , go to Mexico ( there are a lot of tech companies there + they pay well for programmers+ things are cheap there .

The netherlands government is trying to prevent universities from admitting more foreign students due to their current housing crisis. They plan to remove all english taught programs as a way of doing that. Estonia has changed her immigration laws and more reform is on the way. Mexico is very okay if you can speak spanish. You can work in the US when you get the passport on a TN Visa. In mexico you can get PR after studying and a passport in 3 years on PR but all studies are in spanish. No english taught programs

It's crazy. Australia too is fine tuning their PSW visa to favour STEM courses only. GTE has changed.

What's your take on Ivory Coast? I want to put it as my last option. Worst case scenario, I go there and dance makosa grin

Lol I cant advise any African country for anyone except I don't like you.
Re: Alx Or Uk by homotayo11(m): 7:21am On Jun 24, 2023
Yes they admit foreign students as long as you can speak Finnish language.

I started learning Finnish language using Duolingo but I understand that won't get to a B2 level.

There's this company that offers to teach Finnish language for 6000€ but that seems much for language learning.

Bottom line is I'm confused.

tensazangetsu20:


Where would you learn Finnish In Nigeria to B2 level and how do you intend to proof proficiency. Also, do these vocational schools admit foreigners
Re: Alx Or Uk by ehikwe22: 8:34am On Jun 24, 2023
homotayo11:
Do you consider vocational school as a good route to migrate to Finland? I'm thinking of learning the language then, apply to vocational schools since their tution is free. Hopefully I get to switch from study visa to work visa after a year.



Learning Finnish? One only needs to be good in Finnish before being considered for admission? How good does one need to be in the language to be considered for admission or for one to be able to follow along with the lectures?

I'm not trying to discourage you but I've been learning Greek for two years and still struggling despite spending a lot of time in Cyprus. Though my Cypriots friends prefer to communicate in English but the months I've spent their should have contributed a lot in improving my language skills.

Q: What is the new law for student visa in Finland?

A: The new law for student visa in Finland was proposed by the new government in June 2023. The law would make it more difficult for international students to stay in Finland after graduation.

Q: What are the key changes to the new law?

A: The key changes to the new law include:

Students would only be able to stay in Finland for one year

after graduation to look for a job.

The language proficiency requirement for permanent

residence would be increased. Students would be limited to working 25 hours per week while studying. Q: How would the new law affect international students?

A: The new law would make it more difficult for international students to stay in Finland after graduation. This could make it more difficult for students to find a job in Finland and settle into their new life in the country.

Q: What can international students do to learn more about the new law?

A: International students can contact their local immigration office or a lawyer to learn more about the new law. They can also contact their student union or university for support.

Q: What are the next steps for the new law?

A: The new law is still in the proposal stage. It is not yet clear whether the law will be passed by the Finnish parliament.
