Citizenship Application 2021
Re: Citizenship Application 2021
I had an appointment today for my citizenship application.
I am not happy with my language performance.
What would be the possible scenarios, if officer think my language skills are not satisfactory?

Re: Citizenship Application 2021
If I may ask, did the officer tell you that your language skill wasn't good enough/ not satisfactory?
Re: Citizenship Application 2021
It depends on which language certificate you presented, if it’s not YKI then they could ask you to go take YKI testi.

Re: Citizenship Application 2021
Honestly, I could not understand all of his words.
I am not sure if he commented my language skills.
But for me interview was longer than 20 min.
He asked me e.g. why i traveled Korea or what i ate there, and something about North Korea.
Then questions about if I watch swedish programs...
So my experience was abit different from others here.
Re: Citizenship Application 2021
How i can understand if officers accept my language skills ?
If they issue me diary number, then it means language skills was OK and they start to process other things or is it possible later they inform me about my language skill e.g. ask me to take yki test again?

Re: Citizenship Application 2021
Was the appointment you had at Migri to prove your identity? I don't know for sure if they use those appointments to test your language skills (perhaps they do). If they do, and your skills were deemed unsatisfactory, then your application might be denied on the basis of insufficient language skills. Or they might ask you to further prove your language skills in some way-maybe take the test again. All of this is speculation on my part of course. I have never heard of such a situation where someone managed to pass the YKI without actually knowing the language even to the intermediate level. Perhaps try to actually learn the language in addition to learning how to pass the test.
Re: Citizenship Application 2021
That’s usually how it works, they just start a random conversation with you just to see how well you know the language. You ain’t expected to be fluent, don’t worry about it, the worst case is that they’ll ask you to take the language test again. You can’t be denied because of that.Potter wrote: ↑Mon Oct 25, 2021 3:05 pmHonestly, I could not understand all of his words.

Re: Citizenship Application 2021
Hi, I am working with A permit but fixed contract. My current permit expires with the new year's eve.
I applied for citizenship in July. My queue only went down from 6000ish to 5800 in three months, country is not on the list. Recently I got a notification saying that my application is in the queue.
I applied for A permit extension yesterday, but I got a notification from EnterFinland saying that I could convert my application into P type. I know waiting for P type is also a painful process, but waiting time for citizenship is now up to 20 months. On the other hand, I will go for a holiday in Christmas, so in this condition which application is better? I am inclined more into A permit extension but seeking advice from here.

I don't get what exactly is your point here.Mamu wrote: ↑Fri Oct 22, 2021 1:47 pmHaving Kela money is not illegal at least you inform the Migri. But people like from Africa Speaking his guilt on behalf of another person is just unbelievable.Say you suck the government money.I happy to pay while your unemployment benefits and I sure you get the citizenship.
But taking kela money and working at the same time like you did was indeed illegal.

Thank you. I don't know how would one usually convince migri about that but probably he/she will find the way.PasilanKaveri wrote: ↑Fri Oct 22, 2021 4:29 pmSavings are valid. You must explain by word that somehow, to comfort them that it's enough money for you before getting another job, for example.akuno_hime_1412 wrote: ↑Fri Oct 22, 2021 12:48 pmSo I guess own savings isn't a valid means of support?
Any updates from your application?

Re: Citizenship Application 2021
I got another request of documents a week ago. I answered that. I just have to wait for the decision probably, I'm not sure if they will ask me for more document. They are really stubborn about periods of time where you haven't got any income, and they require you to justify or bring more papers. IT'S SO ANNOYING. At this point, even after almost 2 years waiting in the process, I'm not sure the decision will be positive.akuno_hime_1412 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 27, 2021 9:33 amThank you.

Stage 2 is the processing stage. Is your application being processed already?
