Applying for Citizenship 2024

[Uskomaton]

From https://statistik.migri.fi/ I checked the citizenship applications and decision from 2015 January to 2024 February, because for sure this scope should give us a very health result. on 29th February 2024, there were 19151 pending applications. March 2024 details will be updated on 15 April, I am pretty sure we will have lots of new submitters due to the recent YKI but last year October, December, similar thing happened. YKI tests are all around the year so doesn't really matter.




In my opinion 19151 applications are a lot, usually people were submitting 11K applications annually. However in 2023, this amount became 18K. Either automation should work well or we will have even bigger backlog than ever.

Good luck to all of us. Waiting time will be long for most of us.

Good analysis, I would say.
What's the guess when it comes to the 133**\310\2023 applications?

There is not much consistency in Migri's work. Currently it's seems to be around 6 month from applying date.

Hello, ok
one of my friend got decision today and she did apply 13th oct 23.. and I have applied at the end of Oct 27th (hopefully there will be a +ve news soon).

Hi, may you ask or do you know what is the first 2 or 3 numbers of her diary number, Is it 13XXX or 12XXX? so we can tell whether Migri started processing those with 13XXX or not yet Thank you in advance

Hi,

Does anyone know how one can tell if she/he is in the normal queue or on a slower/demanding/ need more clarification queue? I have read that if you start with a queue number of some 8XXX and that number decreases by 300-400 a month then likely you are in the normal queue. But did someone experience that she/he was on a normal queue and when it came to their dairy number to be processed their queue progression started to decrease significantly and then got stuck without a decision? In other words, can you tell whether one is in the normal queue before Migir starts processing the dairy numbers of a close sequence to yours? any theories

Another milestone!

Hit the 6900s queue!
(started in 8500s approximately 4 months ago)

This week's stats:
Total processed: ~96
Total processed above threshold: ~52
Processed above threshold to total processed ratio: ~0.54
Threshold processing median: ~12678/310/2023
2022 processing median: ~4017/310/2022
New applications created: ~187

I think those within the current median diary numbers of 12000's, have likely applied between August - September of 2023 (?)

Looks like pretty good news for folks of those months. I think December folks are all within the 15000 - 16000 diary numbers. Graph seems to be inching closer to that every week. So, perhaps good reason to believe they'll continue processing 3rd/4th qtr of 2023.

The median for 2022 went down 600 points instead of going up???

It is visible on the graph that 2022 processing is not as dense as 2023 and processed applications spread across wider range.
That is why we see such fluctuations.

Recently I wrote an email asking about the different baskets/queues and the process of applications, staff mentioned in the reply that there are different baskets, and applications are assigned to different baskets depending on how much clarification and consideration the application requires with the help of automated check. My application is in one of the baskets, and applications submitted in mid-2022 will be processed in that basket.

Did they mention when this basket will be processed? Did you apply in mid June 2022?

Applications in this basket are being processed all the time, and currently they are processing the applications submitted in mid 2022. I submitted at the beginning of 2023 so I guess still some time to wait. When did you submit your application?

Hi,

When did you apply exactly and what are the first 2-3 digits of your diary number?
I applied end of December with queue 86xx and diary 169xx but my queue is around 7700s so almost 1000 behind you, it makes me think that I am in a slower basket or queue or whatever.

I think you might actually be in a pretty good situation too!
Your diary is over 1k higher than mine. I applied in second week of December (don't recall exact date but quite early in Dec) and have a mid 15k diary number.

It seem as though many have applied in December, hence the large gap between our diary numbers. Perhaps because YKI results came during beginning of the month and everyone rushed to get a migri appointment. (It's also important to remember that waiting time doesn't really start until after migri visit and after you're issued a a diary number.)

I wouldn't sweat it much if I were you. Maybe I was just lucky to be able to get an earlier appointment.

Applied feb 14 2k23, queue numbercurrently at 3221 , no good news yet probably a long wait

Could be. I applied in August 2022, queue number currently 18XX. Getting closer!

Hello,
I have applied mid December 2023, my diary number is 177xx/310/2023. My queue started from 8060 and now it is around 7k. Anybody applied before or after me?
I know it will take long time to process. Was just curious to see how things are going.
