Today after 16 months of waiting, finally I also got positive decisions.
Applied in march 2021, and queue number was around 19xx.

Hope everyone get their decisions as soon as possible. Wish you all the best

Congratulations mate, you got notification when e got to the stage?

Here's the weird thing. I received no email and no sms for when my decision was ready. I keep refreshing the page like every day and suddenly it said decision is ready in the morning today. No notification via text message or email though!

[Scolix]

Congratulations to all those who got their decisions.

Since January, less than thirty people have announced their positive decisions in this 2022 forum. Someone wrote before that the monthly allowed applications getting positive decision is 1,500 applicants. Perhaps! I think the number of applications receiving a positive decision is significantly lower than that.

There is no need to guess - Migri has a statistics page that outlines how many positive/negative decisions have been served.

Hi,

I proved my Finnish language skill through a vocational qualification certificate as mentioned at Migri's website: https://migri.fi/en/language-skills

"From 1 January 2018 onwards:
A vocational upper secondary qualification, a further vocational qualification or a specialist vocational qualification that has been achieved through studies in Finnish or Swedish (qualification according to act 531/2017)."

The qualification was in the Finnish language officially and last for about 9 months. English was used by the teacher in our communications and I never asked for using English. Of course, I am more proficient in English than Finnish.

A couple of weeks after my application went to "processing", the case officer has objected to the certificate, stating that I used English towards achieving the qualification certificate, such as communication or verbal discussions. The case officer formed his opinion based on information she received from the institution. It is surprising that I never asked the instructor at the institution to use English with me. He used English in our interactions by himself. Nonetheless, the qualification program is officially in Finnish. At the time of proving my identity, I used the Finnish language (no English at all).

Now, I have been asked to provide different evidence of language skills through the certificates given at the above link. It is funny that I already provided them a qualification certificate according to act 531/2017 as admissible by Migri but they are not accepting it. Any alternative language sufficiency certificate as outlined by MIGRI will take another year or so but I have been asked to provide such evidence within two weeks!

Has anyone come across this situation? Can Migri nullify a certificate that is outlined by them on their website?

I will appreciate it if someone could share his/her experience?

Hi,
I have been preparing to apply for Finnish citizenship(the appointment is this week ) with a vocational qualification certificate. All my friends who were on my course mate already got their citizenship with this certificate. Now I am worried that probably they won't accept mine as they did to you.

my qualification name is Kiinteistöpalvelujen Ammattitutkinto from Turun AKK(graduated in 2016)
I can manage to speak and understand Finnish at the most common situations.
I will probably need to sit for YKI test in the worst case but it would unfair if they don't accept mine and they granted citizenship to others with the same certificate.


could you tell me the situation with your case now and what have you done finally?

When they are processing your citizenship application, They will also take account of your ability to express yourself in spoken and written Finnish or Swedish, for example when you interact with the Finnish Immigration Service. This means that They will compare your language skills with the certificate that you have presented as proof of your language skills.

If your Finnish or Swedish skills do not correspond to the certificate you have presented to them,this may affect the decision.How ever you said you can communicate Finnish so feel free the apply to citizenship if you speak and write.

Hei! Migri need’s usually more details about the studying for example OSP is the most important part for them for example while when you were studying teacher job to admitted while you were studying those subject in Finnish.It’s hard to believe if it was just Hyväksytty need more details. Migri started to accepting to a vocational qualification certificate 2018. bfore that not expected.
