The request to make a short approach or maintain a higher-than-normal speed to the final approach fix is the most common reason pilots don’t meet stable approach criteria.

Basics of Radio Communications With Air Traffic Control The guiding principle of ATC communications is understanding. Make those practice calls even more realistic by utilizing live air traffic controllers who can help simulate real interactions. ASA Airplane Flying Handbook can be a great resource.

I had an easy out available to me: a descent of 1000 feet would bring me out of the clouds with plenty of altitude to spare above the terrain. Normally, when approaching a non-towered airport like Williamson Sodus, air traffic control will instruct the inbound aircraft to "squawk VFR" (i.e., This rain did neither.

Even though I was likely to be cleared through the outer ring by ATC (air traffic control) while on an instrument flight plan, I filed a route from Sodus to the Williamsport VOR (FQM) that circumvented the TFR entirely. I intercepted the approach course and after a few moments, reached the final approach fix at JUNIA.
