3 month approval thats amazing

infuriating as usual

basically what INIS are potentially saying is there are 3000 people already lined up for the ceremony in april, and those 3000 all have already received approval....

so those who havent received approval - i.e us, may have to wait until a ceremony in late summer?

Year of Application 2014 and earlier 2015 2016 2017 2018 to date Total Applications currently on hand 368 201 761 2,773 8,705 12,808 This is from 19th Dec. So i guess there could be a couple of thousand who have been approved but not invited to a ceremony... I'm one of the 2773 from 2017! :D :D

Anyone received any invitation? An user in the ceremony day topic said he was informed by inis that aprils ceremony is fully booked? How can this even be possible? No approval hence no invitation my side. Applied in October 2017, 2nd stage since early Jan 2019. There couldn't be a couple of thousan...

Initially, I was of the opinion it is pure laziness or incapability of bureaucrats. But now I strongly believe it is a well-engineered policy with a combination of laziness, randomness, and disguise to covertly keep the anti-immigrant policy intact and limit the numbers below certain numbers and ob...

Ive had my 2nd stage letter since Nov 2017 have no offences, never claimed anything and have been living here for the past 12 years. So, its hard to know the answer to your question :/ some people get it very quickly while others wait... But I do believe they are working on the delayed applications...

I posted earlier in this thread - after applying in Oct 17 I received a letter looking for more information near the end of Dec 18 (not sure why they asked for this more info as I had given them it originally - and not sure why it took a year to ask for this!). Anyway sent back the required info and...

Hello did your wife get her second stage letter ? I applied in Oct 17 and haven’t received a second stage letter. I emailed Inis on Fri explicitly asking them was I at 2nd stage as haven’t received a letter, all I normally get are the standard still processing normally replies - so let’s see if the...

I also applied October 2017, April 2018 I got a later saying it's been processed in a normal way. Then a week ago I email asking for update again and they replied saying it's still being processed This mimics my timeline exactly, including the generic response recently. Basis of my app is 5 years r...

Hi all - anyone receive any updates on their 2017 app?

That's still first stage. I received the same and only after a few months another letter which clearly stated "second stage". Not necessarily, I received the same response after few months of the second stage letter being issued. No need to worry and don't over think. There is no common s...

anything to be worried about that i haven't explicitly received a 2nd stage letter? i applied in oct 2017 and the only proactive communication i received from inis was in april 2018 saying: "Your application is currently being processed in the normal way with a view to establishing whether you...

from the inis website;

The next day of citizenship ceremonies will take place in 2019 in the Killarney Convention Centre, Killarney, Co. Kerry. An exact date will be announced in 2019.

fair play for getting through - i tried to call 47 times from my mobile (and another 30+ times from a landline) between 10:14 and 12:15 and no answer.

I certenly understand that Citizenship is privilege not a right. However, the point that you missing is that we are not anxious about getting approval.. The case is that we deserve a respond within 1 year yet the usual time frame is 6 months. Most of the people a definete answer within 6 months or ...

Based on the last 2 years, most likely April or May, unless there is a smaller ceremony beforehand

check this thread https://www.immigrationboards.com/ireland/2017-citizenship-approvals-timelines-only-t222579.html they’re loads of people including myself who applied in 2017 and was sworn in yesterday in Killarney. Good luck to your application! Thank you - I was one who wasn’t processed from 201...

My basis of application is 5 years residency (EU)
