A finishing apparatus is provided which includes a stacker for stacking recording sheets; a first and second conveyor for conveying a recording sheet to an image forming apparatus; a sheet accommodating device for accommodating a sheet to be inserted at an insertion position which is at least one of the top of, the bottom of or a middle portion between the recording sheets; a sheet feeder for feeding the sheet accommodated in the sheet accommodating device to the stacker; an input device for designating the insertion position of the sheet; and a finishing controller for controlling the sheet feeder so that the sheet to be inserted into the recording sheets is stopped and thereafter reconveyed. The feeding interval between the first and second conveyors is made larger when a sheet is inserted between recording sheets.
