Reporting to Migri won’t help. Make the rikosilmoitus and then the police will investigate and after they are charged with a crime, Migri will be informed automatically.

It will tell you percentages and not euro amounts. You have to do the math yourself. On the last page it will tell you your “tax rate calculated 2024” it is that percentage plus the box just below that where it says “In addition to taxes, a pension insurance contribution of 7,15% and an unemployment...

If you think bringing someone with you will help, do that but make sure you are the one doing the speaking. Why? There shouldn’t be any issues letting someone else speak also.

Btw starting from July migri started to provide average processing time from 6 months not 5. So, maybe for those who applied in July should wait 6 months these days.
