It's very weird that they asked you for photos and they didn't ask my wife for photos. Did any one else receive approval in which no photos were requested?

Still waiting for an invitation too here in Galway. Sent in the final documents and the €950 on May 6, 2015 by registered post. I know they were delivered, but INIS didn't send a letter stating they had been received. With all previous communications, an acknowledgement letter always followed short...

Did they ask for photos in all the approval letters?

Hi guys,

For those who received approval letter and not requiring 2 photos. Did they contact you again asking for photos ?

Was it lost after you applied or before you applied?

The ceremony is tomorrow not today

The original passport should have been returned.
