I think it was Malmi... I do remember that this particular pc will grind to halt when I end up to proper page that has the contact info, so do check yourself: www.poliisi.fi

Are you sure you want to extend your visa? I have a hunch that you mean residence permit, the two are quite different beasts and not to be confused. Not to mention that you should not confuse officials by asking a when you mean b.
