I am one week shy of 7 months (Aug 21,2018) since my application was recieved in Dublin (Direct to Dublin from USA, No embassy envolvement) no Email yet. Another user has not recieved his FBR certificate after being added to the FBR over 2 months ago. So even after being added to the FBR, it will be...
I'm applying for FBRs for my two children based on my mother being born in Ireland. I submitted the forms, etc., in October and got word that everything had been received. Here's my question: how many of you had irregularities in how names were spelled? My mom was born in 1938 and her handwritten b...
First time post Submitted application to London embassy on November 4th. Delivery via Royal Mail confirmed 4th November. Received this email from DFAT today: “Your application and supporting documentation for your application for Foreign Birth Registration has now been received. Applications can ta...
My application was received January 16th. Straight forward application with no complexities. I double triple quadruple checked to make sure I included everything I needed. 2 months have already flown by because I didn’t really think much of it until this morning. From looking through these posts so...
this is what the DFA has posted about the FBR Registering a foreign birth At present it takes approximately 6 months to process a completed Foreign Birth Registration application. However, due to the complex nature of the Foreign Birth Registration, it may take up to 12 months to process an applicat...
Just that, everyone is now supposed to get an email before the certificate. Some here have reported getting one, others not. But, as a previous poster suggested the process has changed so that everyone gets one, I thought I'd ask. And he said that's the case. We'll see. They also said that I would ...
I applied in October 2018 and application received in London on 8 October. Application was sent to Dublin on 6 Secember 2018 for processing. I’ve not chased it since then just trying to think positive 😊 How did you find out when it went to Dublin? I applied September, had its receipt acknowledged a...
The way this is all working out, Im expecting a hand drawn crayon FBR certificate printed on the inside of a cereal box cover. Haha ya just have to laugh sometimes
Hi, Does anyone know how the FBR certificates and original documents are returned to people living in the UK? I have missed a parcel from Royal Mail today and wondering if it could be them! Aargh, we're going to have to wait until Monday now to find out. Out of curiosity, when did you apply? I appl...
Thanks for updating me. Its not necessary to ask for further, I had assumed that you would have had the “Dublin date” at your fingertips. Basically it would seem that myself, My cousin, Liam and Laurie (if that name is correct) just missed this current batch and hopefully will be included in the bat...

Called to see if any updates.. was told will not be added to the FBR until Aug or Sept, that is now 12-13 months. Considering an application withdrawal, I could use the money for something else rather than play cat and mouse with these people. I was told up to 6 months, then 8, 10 and now a min of a...
