citizenship application and travel outside Finland

[sam_001]

Hi,

I have applied for citizenship in June. I know that it will take many months for processing but I need to travel for 7 weeks outside Finland. I remember reading somewhere that If I have to travel for more than a month, I need to inform the immigration so that if they need any information from me and I don't reply, they will not reject my application because then they will know that I am outside Finland

I cannot find that information anymore but my question is if they need some info, do they ask on the user account or do they send a post to home? If they ask it on the user account, I guess I could reply and send the information from anywhere

If I inform them about my travel, does it delay or affect my application in anyway? And how do I send the information that I am traveling. Do I send an email, call or through the section in the user account where it says send extra information or something like that?

Have you applied online? If yes, then you will be able to see all requests for additional information in EnterFinland and to your email/mobile phone
