Employer tells me that they can not transition me from a temporary protection to a work permit, because it is not allowed by law. Is it true? For example critical employment permit costs 1500, what does employer make sense to buy it for you if you already have permission to work? I guess to find an...

Hi. I am a Ukrainian who come to Ireland with the help of the temporary protection in Ireland. Now I would like to stay in Ireland forever. One of the options I think is to make a transition from the protection to a normal visa. When I moved to Ireland I found a job and asked my employer for help t...

If more than 6 weeks in a year, you have to notify: "If you are outside the State for longer than 6 weeks after you submit your application, you must notify ISD by letter or email to explain why." https://www.irishimmigration.ie/how-to-become-a-citizen/become-an-irish-citizen-by-naturalisa...

If you then will think about citizenship application, that period will be excluded from calculations, or even ignored whole year, especially if you be absent over 6 weeks in the year prior to application, remember about 1826 days overall being at State

Congrats mads32. I wonder if they now process applications by batch instead of chronological order. So they process applications in January - June 2021 and doesn't progress with remaining applications and then start processing June - December 2021 applications. Because I still don't see any acknowl...

I am planning to send an email to Minister also, not asking about my application status of course as they direct you to ISD for that, but simply asking about how come they plan to make decisions on naturalisation applications in 6 to 9 months as minister tells, when they can't even send acknowledge...

I hope a lot of us submitted the naturalisation applications with the scorecard approach starting this year. Has anyone got any type of acknowledgment or response from the Citizenship department? I'm wondering if no one got any response back? I cannot see any responses back from them on the timelin...

Applicant from November 2021 got acknowledgement letter so I really wonder if it's in chronological order or if there is a different system. I doubt is chronological because I’ve applied in October 2021 and am yet to receive an acknowledgement letter. Who knows might be in the post today…not 🙈 Late...

Do you mind me asking what country are you comparing Irish system to? I applied in mid November 2021 it's now almost mid May 2022, 6 months later, I didn't even get the letter saying they got my application. Same here buddy, late Oct 21 -nothing, I know friends May 21 and Jul 21, they did not get a...

I know the question is not directed to me, but Sweden - 2 months between application and decision with passport , New Zealand: 6-12 months between application and decision + passport (confirmed by my mates there)

i can totally see Helen McEntree working hard to improve the overall performance of the department but the real issue is the ancient style bureaucracy standing in her way. She's got a real job on her hands. It is just excuse, by saying that: what kind of proof of that word you have? It has been sai...

Has anyone who applied in September/October 2021 received an acknowledgement letter and application number? We applied 29th September and still no letter. I really thought by the end of April we would have one as its 7 months now. Mates on Sep 21-no,myself and another applicant Oct 21 - nothing as ...

Hello folks I just recently applied on citizenship and it is over 6 months nothing back to me (only passport) and no reference number, my child has been living with me in Ireland over 5 years, as of known that for minor the certificate of parent is needed, do you think it makes sense to apply for my...

Just out of curiosity, when does the processing time start for your citizenship application ? The day they receive your application ? the day you receive your passport back ? Or the day your receive your acknowledgment letter ? Irrelevant to whatever anybody says in this forum I emailed citizenship...

Did anyone applied after September 2021 got any acknowledgement letter (and maybe eVetting form at same time) by any chance? It's been 5 months till I applied and I didn't get my acknowledgement letter. My 4,5 months calculation is failing at this stage. I applied for my kid in Nov 2021, got the pa...

I sent applications around 16th feb and no response yet. Now i am about to change my address and I don't have application number to tell them so that they can update address on their system. Any suggestions for this scenario? You should have a tracking number from Anpost, use it as reference, also ...
