In 80% of cases, applicants receive a negative decision (a refusal by the voivode to issue a residence card) simply because they are unaware that additional documents must be submitted, that specific deadlines apply, or where and how to submit the documents correctly.

Immigration offices do not send letters requesting missing documents during the processing of your application, except for the formal request (wezwanie) given to you in person when you submit your fingerprints at the immigration office. They may also choose not to publish any further requests. The applicant is responsible for submitting all the documents required to obtain a positive decision.
