well im one of many applicants whos application is still under process for almost 2 years.
and yes they don't say explicitly but they do assume that the time your application is in process your still a non eu/irish citizen therefore until you become irish those rules applies.

read this page all info u need is there

as on their website inis states you have to be legally residence in state at all times.
so technically they can ask you proof of your status at any time while your application is in process and can hold your application.
so I suggest you keep your legal status up to date at all times.

in my view these shouldn't be the reasons of delay however I think they are the reason for delay or else why would they delay your application for 4 years. I have been waiting for almost 2 years I can up to some extend understand your frustration. I wish the letter they said they send you is your ap...

do you work your self?

katia

4 years is just unreasonable.

if she move back to uk before the 5th anniversary of ur wedding then the right to be in state is cease to exist.

what date you received your approval letter and what was the date on the letter

this information is important to me

Hi Syjem in my opinion there are no specific definitions of each stage an advance stage or final stage could mean anywhere in between ready for submission and decision issued. this is why I said ask them if the file is submitted to the minister for decision because if it has at this point most likel...

syjem
I don't thinks that's final stage I think final stage is when they are waiting for minister decision.

or else according to you final stage would mean the process of posting the decision to applicant

did they said your application is submitted to the minister?

I called them Thursday same response you should ring them today ask if your applicatio...

call them on next Tuesday ask them at which stage your application is at. if its submitted to the minister for approval already then there is a chance you will get approval soon if not then chances are slim you will be included in next ceremony. also many applicant who applied in 2016 still wating. ...

I think if the file is not submitted by this week then slim chance we will make it to next ceremony

apply for eu3 six months before the expiration of your current stamp considering your marriage is covering full five years. you can apply for naturalisation once you have stamp 4 eu fam for 5 years. you can apply both eu3 and citizenship at the same time if you cover the time. do not rely on natural...

he as need to mention on the citizenship application form. so better also notify immigration office in advance cos they will find out through citizenship office. my advise is to go through a solicitor for how to notify immigration office or even if there is a need, btw this will not fly well with th...

the applicant in this case already received his permanent residence so he is exempt from applying EU3 regarding informing the immigration office I suggest you do inform them as it say on the eu3 approval letter you have to inform them if circumstances change that effect your right having said that t...
