Hi,
I hope I"m at the correct place with this issue.
I moved to Finland a year and a half ago and 3 months later got married with a Finnish man, I am non-EU citizen. I have a profession, but so far I'm focused on language studies and don't work yet. The only reason I came here is to be with my husband, but he has a very bad drinking problem and his behavior when he is drunk makes me miserable every time he drinks. I thought I can live with it, I thought I will get used to it, but lately it's too much and I'm not sure if I can or even should take this anymore. There is no physical violence between us, however (and without going into details) the social service people said that this counts as a domestic violence. He refuses to get any kind of help, with the excuse of I don't understand the Finnish culture. Besides that he is a good guy and I love him very much. I hope he will get the help he needs and all this will become e relevant, but I also have to think about myself and what is good for me.
OK, sorry for poring my hart out here, here is the deal: I'm trying to decide what to do about all this situation. In case we will get separated or even divorce, how will it effect my residence permit? Its A permit valid for 4 years (until 2021) that I got based on family ties. I looked at migri site, but the information there is very robotic and not very clear about this issue. I was reading a lot of similar posts here in the forum, but couldn't find something similar to my situation. Does anybody knows what will happen to my residence status in case of separation or divorce when there is such a problem involved?
Please help.
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
