Hello all, To the ones who have submitted applications online - has anyone completed the process and gain their naturalisation/citizenship? If yes, how long did that take? Paper based applications take about 6 months, but that is because everything is manual. Online applications save the home office...

In fact the last time I travelled (Barcelona, Feb 2013 for half maratho...
Thank you! While the Finnish website talks a lot about Schengen, they don't say much about EU/EEA...They do say something along the lines of not having to pay for a visa, but nothing about visa-free travel. And each country seems to have its own intepretation of the directive. Hence my query... to s...
