What to Do When You Receive an Additional Information Request from The Finnish Immigration Service?

Receiving an Additional Information Request (Lisäselvityspyyntö) from the Finnish Immigration Service can be stressful and confusing. Many applicants do not realize that this often signals a risk of receiving a negative decision if the response is not handled carefully and completely.

How you respond to this request plays a crucial role in the outcome of your application. Submitting incomplete, unclear, or incorrect information can easily lead to a refusal, even if you otherwise meet the requirements. It is therefore essential to take the request seriously and prepare a strong, well-supported reply.

They can review your case in detail, identify what information or documents are missing, ensure that your response is accurate and complete, and help you present your situation clearly and convincingly. A professional can also communicate with the Finnish Immigration Service on your behalf to make sure your case is properly understood.
