After 3 years received a letter asking again to submit my national passport, although I had already provided them with an Affidavit that I don't have national passport 3 yrs ago... Yet again asking to provide new Affidavit...

Received my file under foi, Garda vetting in the early stage of application, no activity since Aug 2017. I’m beyond being pissed ;(

Kseni... Every budyy is in the same boat, don't worry.

Just got a reply from Dept of Justice through a Solicitor, where we had threatened them that we will proceed with judicial Review after receiving copy of my file under FOI. They replied the same shi***. That for a broad range of reasons some cases take longer than others.. Blah blah... and that if ...

Many Congratulations dear... Good news at least one of us (2016) got it.... Best of luck ahead.

Since then my file hasn't been touched until now. Couldn't get hold my solicitor as she is in Court all day. Will talk to her on Monday about Judic...

No, she can't travel without a visa on Stamp 4.

If your friend's Stamp 4 in Ireland is based on the marriage to an Irish citizen and travelling together with the Irish citizen to the UK then she won't need to apply for a visa.

Thank you Max307....

Hello all.
I would like ask that one of my friend's wife is None EU citizen with stamp4, but would like to travel to UK for 3 weeks and return back to back Ireland. Can she travel without a visa with her two Irish Children?
Thanks.

If the flag attached to your account is truly representing your country of origin, then it is kind of obvious that they are discriminating you based on your country of origin. Pity that the approach followed by the department seems to play a waiting game and keep people waiting indefinitely till ei...

I agree and do understand that it won't work, but I just wanted to see what's causing the delay in my citizenship application and will then decide to either sue them or leave this country.

:oops: ... I applied in November 2016. Got Second stage letter in December 2016. Apparently straight forward application. Nothing since except copy paste emails and letters. Recently asked my TD to inquire about the delay. Same copy paste reply to him as well. Tomorrow I'm going to ask for copy of m...

Paddy! Thanks for sharing. Did you apply for FOI yourself or through a barrister ?
I have been waiting since November 2016 although they says it's a straight forward case.lol
