Abstract. We call a lattice $L$ {\it isoform}, if for any congruence relation $\Theta $ of $L$, all congruence classes of $\Theta $ are isomorphic sublattices. In an earlier paper, we proved that for every finite distributive lattice $D$, there exists a finite isoform lattice $L$ such that the congruence lattice of $L$ is isomorphic to $D$. In this paper, we prove a much stronger result: {\it Every finite lattice has a congruence-preserving extension to a finite isoform lattice}.
