Hey all,
I am in a bit of dilemma about my Citizenship application that i put in during March 2016. I had 2 DUI's (Driving Under Influence) in the past, the first one was in 2013 during summer (about 4 months fine and driving ban) and the second one was last year during summer as well( about 8 months fine and driving ban). I paid both fines and the driving ban has elapsed since last year December and i have been driving ever since. Now my question is; is the DUI's going to affect my chance of having a positive decision concerning my Finnish citizenship? Thank y'all

Re: Concerns about Finnish Citizenship
It seems fairly likely to me that you will have problems.
What you mean with eight months fine? Maximum for one crime is 120 "päiväsakkoa".

Odotusajan määräytyminen
Jos kansalaisuushakemus hylätään 13 §:n 1 momentin 3 kohdan perusteella, hakijalle voidaan määrätä odotusaika, jona häntä ei kansalaisteta ilman perusteltua syytä. Kansalaisuuden myöntäminen odotusajan kuluessa tai sen päätyttyä edellyttää uutta hakemusta, jolloin kansalaisuuden myöntämisen edellytysten täyttyminen arvioidaan uudelleen.
Edellä 1 momentissa tarkoitettu odotusaika on:
1) sakkorangaistuksen osalta vähintään vuosi ja enintään kolme vuotta luettuna rikoksen tekopäivästä;

What i meant is that i got 8 months driving ban and i was fined. Do you know anyone who has been denied based on it before?
Re: Concerns about Finnish Citizenship
It could be useful if you told how many "päiväsakko" you got, as that probably determines how long the waiting period is.
Re: Concerns about Finnish Citizenship
So you didn't learn from the first time?
I lost a relative because of someone like you. I hope your application is denied.

Every case is unique. You can't measure the result of your application based on arbitrary anecdotes online.
Re: Concerns about Finnish Citizenship
I got 55 ''päiväsakkoa for the second one, i can't remember the first one but i know it's not up to that.Rip wrote:It could be useful if you told how many "päiväsakko" you got, as that probably determines how long the waiting period is.
