very basic question that got me unnecessary confused.
Do we need to submit the bank statement when applying for citizenship, or the payslip is enough?
In the website there is no mention of bank statement, but friends are saying that it must be add. I will add it anyway but a bit confused though....
Have you started to fill an application?
If you are employed, then on enterfinland you will be asked to provide 4 attachments:
1) Contract
2) Latest payslip for the current year.
3) Final payslip for the previous year.
4) Bank statement for the last 6 months.

I don’t think they ask for banks statement .They consider applicants if he/she has a family member of Finnish citizen otherwise if the applicant has different types of life condition based on work or study then they might ask for bank statement or more.

I filled the application and went for interviews last month. In Migri, lady who was checking my document, didn't mentioned anything. But since friends started to tell me that I must have added it, I got stressed and puzzled. I think I will add the bank statement anyway to make sure every document is provided if they needed.

Thanks everyone for taking time and answering my questions. cheers :)

One question, for those who have been waiting for 19 months and over. What was the duration left on your permit when you submitted your application, and is the permit still valid now or duration ended?
At the time of application, i still had one year validity of my RP. I got the PR 6 months before the expiry of my RP. The permit has to be valid throughout the time while citizenship application is in process. otherwise the processing is stopped until the permit is renewed.
I am wondering if you are still waiting?

I am still waiting. Since 4.05.2021 my application moved to second stage. Its stuck there since. I wrote to migri on 11.05.2021 (after exactly 19 months). They replied: "as soon as the case officer has checked the conditions you will get the decision." So now waiting for that. I have not been asked for any extra information as yet. so makes me wonder what is going on now. However, there is nothing much to do than WAIT.

19months?? Woow! Were you on a 4 years R or PR? Did you apply based on family route, studies route or asylum route?
I’m very interested. Which year did you come to Finland? Did you use yki test certificate or diploma in Finnish. As I heard those who are with yki test gets faster decision

Sad situation, but it can be negative. Maybe they are preparing the negative decision declaration (reason why negative) so that you can appeal.

But I hope and pray for you that it will come positive.

Well whatever it may be, better to get a decision to move on with life rather than being in limbo. Thanks for the well wishes :)

I came as student in 2013, got one year work permit in 2015 extended to 4 year work permit in 2016, gained permanent residence status in 2020 (after applying for citizenship in Oct 2019). Applied on the basis of YKI test. Unfortunately my home country ended up in the list of countries with identity establishment problems. When my application moved to second stage on 04.05.2021, I checked my study info page and it was accessed on the same date by migri early in the morning. That sums up the whole case :)
