My Number One Advice for Dependent Visa Newcomers in Finland.

- In this video, I talk about what I think is the best option for newcomers coming on dependent visa ( or as a spouse) to Finland, if they are unable to find professional work in their field.
Spouses not being able to find work due to language requirements is a highlighted topic when it comes to migration in Finland. However, spouses also have a wonderful opportunity in terms of integration, if they are planning on living in Finland in the long term.
Contact your nearest TE Office to find out how you could also join an integration program in Finland.

I have helped many professionals and friends relocate to Finland for work & study-based opportunities over the years. Reach out to me if you have any questions, and I will help as much as possible.

I've seen lots of channels about life in Finland, but mostly they talk rubbish and consume quite a lot of time.
But here you are... Always on point, no garbage whatsoever. Cheers mate 👍👍👍
Raki, this is truly fantastic content. My wife only managed to participate in this integration program quite late, primarily because no one, even the Sri Lankans living here in Finland, mentioned it. It's genuinely useful for families immigrating to Finland. I'm under the impression that upcoming changes to immigration laws won't impact this long-standing program.
Your TH-cam channel stands out as extremely professional. Upon watching the first video, I was instantly convinced that you must be a software engineer. The systematic and organized manner in which you present your content speaks volumes about your skills. Please continue your excellent work; I believe your channel has the potential for significant growth. Wishing you all the best.
Really important content. Thank you for the video !
I just wanted to say that I've been watching your videos for a few days now and I really enjoy them. I love your way of explaining things in a clear and concise way. I've learned a lot from your videos, especially your video on community integrating. I think your channel has a lot of potential and I'm excited to see what you do next.🎉
Thank you very much!
Informative video. Thanks.
Hey, thanks for watching! Glad you find it helpful.
woooow, What an important information for anyone who wish to come to Finland.
Glad you found it helpful :)
Great information.
Glad it was helpful!
I am now really interested to learn Finnish first. Thanks bro
You are welcome!
Great information bro. Thanks for sharing. By the way just a quick question does IT industry specific for data analysis requires Finnish language as well?
A large portion of all jobs in Finland’s Job Market will require Finnish. There are, however many opportunities that do not require Finnish for IT related fields, including Data Analysis. I have worked as a Data Scientist in English Speaking companies.

Hi Raki, your thumbnail looks to be different to what topic is all about. Yes you talk about the language need in Finland, but thumbnail suggests the topic is about how to learn Finnish, when someone listens to your intro with that expectation might leave the video without listening the whole thing.. I like your channel, hence thought of sharing this feedback.
Edit - 👍👍 for the new thumbnail.. 👍👍
Hi Mahesh, thank you very much for the feedback.
Yes "Integration program in Finland for spouse" would be nice.
@@RESLFI How can we join.
@raki,
Its a nice to see your contents & those are very informative.Also I need to know from you, are there any barrier to get a resident permit if we have selected for an partime mastrers?
Hi Tharanga, thank you for the feedback.
I have not yet heard of part-time masters programs for international students. There are times students will take longer than 2 years to complete their degree (especially the thesis), but this is usually because they may have found full-time work. So their residence is based on work (not on studies anymore).
If you’re applying for a study based residence permit, you are required to complete a minimum number of credits (usually 60 ECTS) for the year so that you can complete your degree in two years. If you haven’t you might face problems with extending your study-based permit.
@@rakidedigama Thanks a lot for quick response.
As a student holding a permit type A, my question is whether my dependent can receive Kela benefits such as healthcare and unemployment.
Excellent idea Brother Cheers. I need more info Bytheway If you feel free.
Hey thanks! You can contact me via email. Will try my best to respond timely.
Please tell me what benefits i can get if i have b permit on family ties
In B-Type visa spouse can do integration course ?
Really nice content. But I have a question. There is a upcoming immigration rule to be updated about unemployment benefits. If someone takes unemployment benefits for some longer time, he or she will have to face some issues when obtain the PR. Then what is your opinion on this matter????
That's an excellent question. The new regulations are still being examined and might be implemented this year. However, the exact legislative details are yet to be finalized and discussed in parliament, especially those concerning the work visa.
Under the current rules, spouses with prior work experience and educational qualifications are eligible for unemployment benefits before they join the integration program. However, if the new proposed regulations are implemented, these benefits will no longer be available to spouses of students.
Despite these changes, there could still be an opportunity to receive unemployment benefits during the one-year integration program. However, it's an intensive program where attendance and punctuality are heavily enforced, and failing to comply may result in the benefits being withheld.
If these benefits are discontinued altogether, the government might need to consider closing the entire integration program. Without any incentives like these benefits, it's likely that people won't attend the classes and instead will search for part-time jobs.
Adding to that, the potential closure of the integration program would also impact the Finnish teachers and administrative staff involved in conducting these classes. They would likely lose their jobs, leading to additional complications.
Indeed, we'll have to wait and see how the situation evolves.
@@RESLFI really good explanation. Thanks
I agree with @RESLFI.
Naturally, the new government wants to incentivize more people to work, and reduce unemployment. Still, I hope these kind of integration programs for those that are already here but unable to find employment are not completely affected. The government program also plans to prioritize work-based language training, which could be a win-win solution for both parties.
We will have to see how the proposals are implemented.
Where do i go to enroll for the integration program? Is it TE,or Kela? Pls tell me
Hey, it’s the TE office.
What is your view on finding a job for an accountant in Finland?
Just like in Japan where you need to know Japanese to get a good job, in Finland, you need to speak Finnish to work well with customers and for many jobs. There was a lawyer who had trouble finding work until they joined a special program to learn Finnish. Even in fields like mining or software engineering, you need to know Finnish, especially if the company has a lot of Finnish clients. An accountant might be lucky and find work with a company whose clients speak English. But as Raki suggests, it's a good idea to join a fast-track program to learn Finnish.
Hey, same goes to accountancy roles as other fields in Banking and Finance. In central areas like Helsinki, there will be more opportunities in English, whereas many companies in other regions will operate in Finnish.
Promo'SM 👏
Very informative ❤Raki can you share your no.i have to discuss with you.
Learn the language, Finnish. Get a job. Live peacefully and respect Finnish culture.
