The first and second periods are one year and the third period is two years. One * * * is four years, and then you can apply for a permanent visa, with no time limit. But you must stay in Finland for three months every year.

Second, stay in Finland for a long time through work.

It's the first time to get a B visa (previously B 1, the student is B2), and now there is no difference, except that the student visa will indicate the school, and you can only work 20 hours a week. The visa is issued by the local police station, but it needs the approval of the labor bureau.

The term of the first time and the second time is 1 year, signed by B.

Third, four A symbols, each lasting 1 year. The fifth and last time, the term is 2 years, and then it will be changed to permanent residence. A * * * takes six years.
