Hi Sol,

I received the mail in less than 2 weeks and my national identity number was written there too.

I registered my move on 10.06 and got the confirmation paper with my FNR on it dated 17.06. This was a move from another Nordic land so it might have been simpler than coming from other countries due to the agreements in place.

you should basically assume NOTHING will happen in July I tried to sort out a somewhat complicated tax situation when I first moved but I kept getting the same answer- try again in August.

Less than two weeks, though expect a few days extra at the moment as its summer holidays here.
