I wouldn't go back immediately. They have full track of you - where you flew from, where and how you purchased your tickets from, billing addresses etc, access to some income data from other countries etc. If you are less than 180 days of a year in 'your country' (as they define it) they most likely...

I've seen both the "European format" with the irrelevant information in curriculum and the US format resume been used, the "European format" being the academic format without being for an academic purpose, and without listing publications etc. I personally go always with resumes, no matter if applyi...

Also any child born in Italy is Italian. Any child born in USA gets US citizenship, and so on. The negative answers they have given for EU1 applications have surely been only for these sham marriages.

If you have never lived in EU *with your wife* then it will be a problem. Based on the previous South African/anycitizenship cases here, it would come back as refused. After much longer than the legal 6 months wait. Go to UK. It will be so much better. Or Finland - since you are Finnish, they should...
