I think its every where ,
like now there is more than 150 thousand American solders in Iraq without any Visa or legal way
least ppl here r just working or trying to survive , cause ppl in my country are trying to settle and kick the lacals out .

yeah, I don't believe what americans are doing in iraq is right. nor what the canadians are doing in afghanistan. I just wish they'd just stay out of this, because I think what they're doing is just not right.

yeah but as all we know bad things happened ,
so some we can solve, like now here in Finland, so police begin to check the resedancy permits, but some problems cant be, like in my country cause the police have no permit so great life.
just cheers friends .

Isn't it tough to get a residency permit? I know I messaged the Finnish consul awhile ago asking if I was allowed to work in Finland, and the steps I'd have to take to move and work there on a visa.. And he pretty much stated that if I wasn't a member of a country that belonged to the EU, or if I had no family history in Scandinavia, then I can't move or work there... maybe thats why theres alot of illegal foreigners..

Ok, i admit it. When I was an exchange student in Helsinki, and the 3 months turist permission expired I didn't renewed it with a student permission. I was attending university and I had student card, I just didn't go to police and say "hey, i am here for other 2 months!".
Many of my friends didn't do either, so bad.
But now don't call the police.

is it as Hazardous as in other European countries such as France and Germany to live without a valid residence permit? It seems that all the illegal migrants caught in the above countries are sent back to their Country with no other consideration.
