OK. Thank you.

You're welcome, best of luck.

I don't think 'ministerial discretion' is black and white, nor the wording around Irish associations, as we all know. If anything, this shows gaps in the current law. But there we have it. As you can see from the decision, your life circumstances did not convince the Minister to warrant using her d...

The link was to a media article about the persons life story and plight. It will not be permitted on the forum.
The user was also previously advised in 2019 about the requirements and risk of refusal.

Oh I see, I though she/he posted a copy of the rejection letter.

On a moral and emotional level, this feels truly horrendous. Ireland is my only home, but I have no official recognition of that. Does anyone have any advice? Judicial review seems a long shot -- is it worth it? Re-post the link without your personal details and application number or type in the te...

You must wait 97 days to make up for your absences in 2016-2017 and 2018-2019.

I participated in the ceremony on the 13 of December. The ceremony was well organised, beautiful and emotional. You will make an official declaration. It's an important life event. If you get an invitation for the next one, don't miss it.

You can, paying online is optional and cheques are accepted. The list of documents and the address to send them to is in the letter.

Five days is a plenty of time to send a cheque. What's the problem with that? Send a cheque and go away. The certificate will arrive when you're back.

They make check or they may not check the absences. Regardless of their approach, full record of your arrivals and departures from Ireland can be retrieved if it becomes necessary in the future. Since you applied as a husband or a wife of Irish citizen and have had 1095 days of residence on the date...

My world, don't tell me that you've not received your certificate since you got your approval?

I received the certificate several months ago. But still it is nice to be invited to celebrate it, even virtually.

Just got an email invitation to the virtual ceremony for the 13 of December at 19:00.
Application was approved in January, I thought I will not get the invitation, but turned out it will be sent eventually.

Hi all, I have been looking through the 2021 timelines, and since I am not able to start a conversation there about this, I am starting a new thread . This is a third general naturalisation related topic that you have created. https://www.immigrationboards.com/ireland/what-happens-in-case-you-don-t...

You visa application will be refused.

I suggest to wait. The card will eventually arrive. As long as your husband was registered as legal resident, he will be allowed to enter if you have a proof of registration, such as appointment confirmation and work permit. Border control officers have access to all information about your husband t...

Same in Ireland, if you have already spend a maximum of 90 days on a short-stay visa, you are running a risk of being flagged and refused the entry. Short stay visas cannot be used for prolonged residence in the State.

Previously vetting request were individually completed by the Citizenship team in a paper form and were sent to the Garda Vetting unit, which then returned the reports to Department by post. From this year new adult applicants are asked to complete the form themselves in an electronic format. More i...

Don't publish personal details of another people even if they were related to you on the forum.
You may be eligible to apply through Foreign births register (FBR). Ask here:

Ask Irish embassy to give your husband a visa with longer validity. My sister got a two-year multiple entry tourist visa after getting two single ones. Your husband as a regular visitor should be able to get one. Stamp 4 would be rational if you decided to live in Ireland, it is only for residents, ...

thanks for your help but i already know this. The question was when exactly You question was not "when exactly", you asked "When can the person apply for citizenship". Your hypothetical "someone" is jumping way ahead of themselves to ask for a precise date. No fortune ...

You are saying that you have read similar posts and yet you decided to open another one for something that fits into existing topic. This forum is already difficult to navigate through, you're only adding to that. https://www.immigrationboards.com/ireland/ireland-first-time-passport-applications-tim...

No. Just fill it in normally and give details of all absences on a separate Word or Excel spreadsheet: dates of each trip, duration and reason. Calculator is very useful to establish if you have enough residence after deducting absences and to know how many days you must accumulate before applying.

Easiest way to check is to use the residency calculator tool. Enter all your permission stamps as per your registration except for years when you were away for more than 6 weeks. For those years enter only the dates when you were physically present in Ireland. You will then get a total of days that ...

1) No, leave it. 2) Yes, send signed tenancy agreement for previous years or a statement from a landlord with their contact details confirming that you were indeed their tenant in said property. However it will not be enough. You will need utility bills, official letters from Revenue etc. 3) All ban...

Just going off the above conversation. For those who have received your passports, have you sent in your original passport or an original ID with your application? I have also sent a certified copy of my passport but talking with the web chat today, they mentioned that it has to be an original Pass...

There must a reason why you're getting permissions only for one year each time. Maybe you spend too much time outside of Ireland and they see it. I had a permission just for 7 months because my passport was expiring. Next time I was given permission for 5 years. Just ask to give you a longer permiss...
