Re: Foreign Birth Registration

Could anyone who already has their passport or applied please give their dates? I'm curious if the 20 Business days turnaround is actually to be believed, because after the FBR turnaround time it without a doubt seems too good to be true. :? Took me almost 4 months. Applied 14 May and received ever...

Re: Passport Application Discussion 2022

A question for anyone who finished the process:

Does your paperwork that you sent in get returned with your passport card or does it come under seperate cover later on?

And if it get sent seperately, does the tracking number get added to the passport tracking page?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Foreign Birth Registration

no but it is a simple numbers game using all the numbers they give up. No of applications per month processed and number of applications that came in during the first half of 2020. Before the pandemic in March of 2020, they probably got 7500 applications and 2500 between the start Mar 12th and Aug 1...

Okay so I'm trying to deep dive and figure out exactly what I need to submit myself for the FBR. Considering how long the wait is I figure the sooner the better. I have a (somewhat) complex situation that I can't seem to find anyone else has discussed on here, so hoping someone may have insight? My...

Re: Foreign Birth Registration

And one final thing just looking through the numbers. This article back from 4 Aug 2020 said there was a backlog of 27,000 and in the first seven months of 2020 there were 10000 aplications received. That being said, they didn't get processing Jan 2020 applications until the end of Feb this year, so...

Re: Foreign Birth Registration

Some further numbers if you want to figure it out. Back 15 November 2021, when they restarted processing applications, it was stated the backlog was 31,500. It's now 38,000. Which means in seven months since they started processing again, they processed 7000 applcations, (based on 1000 per month, th...

Re: Foreign Birth Registration

If your theory is true, FBR will now go down drastically, since ceremony on June 20th will cause a heap of new Irish citizens by naturalization apply for a passport. They've hired some temporary staff to Passport office, but doubt it'll be enough to keep passport processing speed on the same level....
