The behavior of the order parameter close to the NS interface in an SNINS junction is considered. To this end, a linear integral equation, which is valid near the superconductor-normal metal interface, is obtained and researched. The Ginzburg-Landau equation is solved taking into account the effect of the current on the space behaviour of the order parameter. Applying the method of quasiorthogonality to asymptotics, the boundary condition for the Ginzburg-Landau equation is obtained. The calculation of the current states, which can exist in an SNINS junction is carried out. We assume the normal layer thickness to be arbitrary and the temperature to be close to critical.

Key words: current, critical temperature, Ginzburg-Landau equation, the order parameter
