Yes I got an appointment for my biometrics 3 weeks after submitting my application

Oh thanks for this information. Omo! A whole 4 more months to wait! 🙆‍♂️😄

Dear Nairalanders, does anyone know whether it’s a normal thing to not have gotten any update on my Canada Visitor’s Visa since 2 months of Biometrics? Or is there cause for any alarm? I got invited for my biometrics at the IRCC office Central Area, Abuja, 3 weeks after my application and since then I’ve been anticipating for the next course of action. Someone with similar experience or valuable information please comment 🙏. Thanks

Lol. That question is actually very important. How are you certain that he's not legit if you hadn't travelled out before 😂... I requested for a factual opinion, not just because you thought it could be fake. You don't know for sure, I don't know for sure, that's why I came here to seek someone with facts about all the possible ways one can obtained Finland work visa.

Hello Nairalanders,

I am writing to seek your genuine knowledge and insight on an issue that's beginning to look odd to me concerning my relocation plan to Finland through a work route.
So my story goes like this, My neighbor left for Finland last year September and he has started working almost immediately. After several gisting and all since he got there, I mentioned to him that I would also love to come over since he confirmed that there are nice jobs there. So he told him it was his in-law that helped him with the processing and he could talk to him on my behalf if I'm serious about it. Eventually, he got back to me and told me the requirements and the amount it would cost me. He said he(the in-law) would be the one to help me get the job after which he would start processing my work Visa and Residence Permit immediately.

The Odd part
Now what's strange to me is that, he claims it is from there they would process my visa and I wouldn't have to do biometric, medical and even interview here in Nigeria. That sounds not right to me because with my little understanding, the Finnish embassy is supposed to invite me for an interview at some point before issuing me a visa into their country. My neighbor claims, it is when I get to Finland that I would then do the biometric and medical and within one week they would issue me my residence permit.

I would appreciate someone with a sufficient experience about Finland processes and understanding about the method of processing visa from abroad to help shed some light to this matter for me.

Thank you
