I got my estimated passport issue date from the tracker and it's saying, 28/11/19. Can anyone who has received their passport let me know how long it took them to get it in hand after the date of issue? I know you're not meant to book your flight until you have it, but I was kind of hoping to book ...

Having completed my FBR and Passport journey, my wife has asked if I can help her with her FBR application. This clearly makes me a glutton for punishment. Her application has a problem that I thought I might share with this forum in the hope that her issue is not unique. The circumstances are pret...

Just wanted to pop in an give an update. I received my FBR certificate in the mail on Tuesday (15/10/19). My date of entry is 19/09/19. I applied for my Irish passport the same day I received the certificate and I had an email from the Irish Embassy in Canberra, Australia the next day just requesti...

Hey Sulla, Would a pay statement from my place or work that has my name and address work as a proof of address? I plan on using that with two different bank statements. Thanks Keith I think it has to be something that has actually been posted to you. I would just stick to the list that TomRiddle pr...

In USA-at first I had no idea about a "stamp" Stamps are a very UK/Ireland thing I think - it's basically a rubber stamp with their name, address, phone number, etc on. I was surprised they asked for it, it's very retro. Not that common these days, but then business cards are quite old fa...

Hello everyone! Can someone let me know if there is a thread for applying for/receiving Irish passports after receiving your FBR? I applied in August for an Irish passport for my 3 children (who received their FBRs) through the NY Embassy in August and only 1 of my children received her Irish passp...

:?: :?: :?: Members don't have the privilege of the PM facility until they have contributed 30 posts on the forum. Hi casa, I don't have PM functionality and I have in excess of 300 posts. I have never used the PM function on any forum, so it's no major loss. However, it would be nice to have.

Updated list version with new additions. I am off to St. Petersburg for a week, before it gets unbearably cold. Edinburgh has not exactly been warm. I never used to mind the weather, but now as I am getting older (40 soon) I find that I just can't take the Scottish cold as well as I once did. I've b...

Hi Sulla I am on your list (Sonic Boom) as one of the August 2018 applicants (28th) - I was added to FBR 30th August 2019. Passport application now going to off to Cork - see how long that takes! Donal Thanks for the update Sonic. Yes, Cork seems to be the best place to sent UK based passport appli...

Thanks everyone. Helpful to know about email notifications. Every time I see the mail man coming I hear a soft lilting Celtic fiddle as I wait in eager anticipation for my certificate. By the looks of the timescales so far, I could be waiting well into next year. Does anyone have any data yet on av...

I am happy to say that stage one of “Project Failte” is complete, I finally got to add the red book to the case. I had this case made in Ireland over a year ago when I started collecting the FBR documents. That's a very nice looking passport cover Michael. I don't go in for them much myself as immi...

With so many people getting emails asking for confirmation of address and many getting this on their birthday I checked my emails on Monday in anticipation. Nothing! So today I called the FBR and got through quickly. The lady asked the date of my application and I said May 2018. She said you mean 2...
