Man, you spoke the heart out , it’s a everyday feeling. Since I work from home I wait every morning for the post man and when see no post , disappointed and wait for the next day - it’s a loop. Has anyone non-EU who applied from Oct-Dec 2020 got approval? I'm aware from this forum EU people have sta...

Looking at some other immigration pages, looks like there are approvals sent almost every week (last approval as per timeline there was printed 21st march )

Anyone still receiving approval by pos recently? Thanks.

I think requirements are clear and every case is different that’s why these applications are dealt by human and not automation. Looking at the letter text - it looks your job may not fall under CSEP, if that’s the case - minimum salary you require is 64k and normal work permit. If your job in CSEP c...

I think minister has shown interest to conduct the next ceremony in June in Dail. I saw something posted dail parliamentary question /answer in one of the post here . Is a ceremony going through for June? I applied Feb 2020, got approved citizenship via naturalisation March 2022. I didn't do FOI, ju...

Is it the first time or second time you applied for FOI?

I hope you’ll get your approval/certificate soon or the certificate in June ceremony!!

I received my FOI today, it shows all checks completed.

So what is the hold up? I dont get it.

Regarding question 2: A) It’s not date you landed but the date you get your IRP card or stamp on passport from INIS as before this date you are on visa and not on residency permit. B) then from date of IRP to next 12 months, you can be away for 6 weeks with no issues ( ex march 21 to march 22). Hi t...

If you meet all the required criteria and good character check then don’t know why you should not get the approval, it’s the matter of time but final decision is always of minister. I don’t think your salary or hours of work impact your application and same for your GF as she is not married or depen...

I think it was same before , certified copy of birth certificate was required.

It's well documented on the official website, you only need to email them with updates in your details. May be sent them an email with a copy of the biometric pages of your new passport and IRP card. No, from April 2021 your permission is not linked to the expiration date on your passport. When you ...

If I was you, I would directly email and ask the ISD that way you will have proof and attach it with the application. Otherwise, taking a defensive approach would have provided the address of each year 2019, 20, 21, and 22 as you are claiming almost half of 2019 and 22 but in your situation, you don...

I read someone recently, they received an email from ISD, citizenshipinfo that they are working on updating the scorecard and include other valuable proof … which is a positive sign.

Life is not black and white and so are the things in life !!! If you are skill laboured (and not the burden) both need each other. Simple ! Do you need them or do they need you ? Oh, dear. If they need you, they will make it reasonable, if you need them then you have to accept whatever they want. Wa...

Have you checked the 2021 timeline, it’s taking around 5 months to get acknowledgment, receipt and reference number. I don’t think you have to do anything, just wait for now.

I see, thanks … strange sometimes they reply instantly and some time they just ignore . How long it took for you to get a reply ? Finally got a reply: "This application is at an advanced stage of processing and will be submitted to minister for decision as expeditiously as possible. While it is...

Same, out of the blue they replied in mid December thou we sent the request long back before. Hey, I requested the application status at mid of July 2021 by email and received similar response at mid of December 2021. I don't even wait for it, my feelings was that this email was ignored or lost. It ...

How long it took for you to get a reply ? Finally got a reply: "This application is at an advanced stage of processing and will be submitted to minister for decision as expeditiously as possible. While it is not possible to give an exact timeframe, this office will be in touch as soon as a deci...

I have just downloaded form 8 Version-6.3-22.12.21.pdf scroll down to page 10 -Section 4: Previous Addresses Please list all your addresses for the last 9 years if a standard application or 5 years if married to an Irish citizen. Include Irish and overseas addresses. It says last 9 years. On the For...

are you sure, you didn't misread it, its last 9 years before the application submission or your entire life?

Do you think they really require ALL addresses I lived in my entire life?

Edit : I cant delete this, I see meself2 already replied the same,around same time:) .

Has anyone recently got a response from ISD and how long does it take to get a reply? I have a feeling it's taking 3-4 weeks for them to reply - if someone can validate it's correct or not?

Does anyone know evetting requests from the department are always directly sent to the applicant or solicitor (if there is one)? any clue on this?

Will you mind sharing was an EU or Non-EU application and when you applied? Received e-vetting invitation form today. A little confused about if they require a copy of passport or other ID documentation to be sent back with this? Letter doesnt mention it but the guidelines included state "all a...

Thank you, it makes sense now. I think it's clear copy of the new passport needs to be sent to the department but not clear if its needs to be certified and all pages or am I missing something? It means: When you fill declaration form (latest stage of citizenship application), solicitor, commissione...

Do you know what is meant by “ -if your solicitor uses it for verification purposes”? Previously, if you got a new passport after you submit your citizenship application, you would need to submit a copy of your new passport's ID page. This is a bit more complicated now since they are asking for ever...

simple maths, suppose if department gets 1000 application then they get = 1000 application * 1000 euro per application = 1000000 euros, in this money they can have atleast 15+ staff. Now, 260 working days * 15 staff = 3900 days work. So, if staff spend on an average 3-4 days on application they can ...
