You can bring a guest with you to the ceremony. No kids but elder ones are allowed.

Is this written in their invitation to the ceremony?

The last twist of the knife from Immigration. You can't bring children either so it's inconvenient for parents. And all for a pointless ceremony that does nothing but boost hotel prices in Killarney.

How do you know that one cannot bring children (as guest/s) in the ceremony?

Does anyone received E-vetting for September-2021 posted application ?

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. From a response from the Minister of Justice (dated 4 May 2022 in pa...

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...

Can you please share when you applied in 2021 and when you received an acknowledgement letter and application number?
Also, did you do an evetting?

Luas fine is not police or criminal related. Why the heck would you be obliged to refer to it in your citizenship application?

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: two applicants, non eu, end of Oc...

Secretary General of eire has requested the certificate from myself here in the UK, offence was a minor assault charge over 10years ago This is slightly confusing for me, perhaps others can assist here. Are you in the Republic, or in Northern Ireland? Also there is no minor assault charge - maybe y...

To clarify, do you have less than 3 POS transactions per calendar month, for 6 consecutive months in your personal AIB account? Thanks so much for your reply.

Hi all, I was wondering if joint bank statements are sufficient as residency proof and if anyone has used them? My salary goes into AIB personal account but I transfer an amount into the AIB joint (in both mine and partners name and we both transfer into it each month) and use that account for all ...

You can try the Free Legal Advice Centre (I think this is okay to post, as it's a service, and no one can say which solicitor you will speak to actually). They have a pool of solicitors, and they may guide you from there, as in point you to some people. At least it's a starting point. One of their m...

Appreciate you taking your time to reply to all points, whether these comments by other posters were potentially erroneous or not. However, your circumstances sound complicated. I wouldn't send anything written to INIS unless you had clear and professional advice regarding what to write, and under w...

I would send 12 months of bank statements to show that continuation - just to get that out there first, so they are not asking you for it. If you happen to have a credit card and so on, I would send statements for the full year for that also.

Judging from the state of the department after the Jones issue and COVID-19, I do not think that it is reasonable to believe that anyone would think they would definitely be done with their naturalisation application in 1-2 years. In this case, I do not think that it would be weird for someone to ho...

You have to look at renewing your IRP (going to the State and seeing what you can do, as even though this is online, you cannot do it from abroad), or see at how you can get a re-entry visa in order to get back into the State. I would advise a solicitor for both, for the main reason that you may not...

The law is that in the last 4 years prior to naturalisation, you should have a total of 3 years residence in the state. The final year should be contiuous residence. But you are then allowed to chose any 2 years in the 4 years preceding the naturalisation application. You certainly cannot choose 20...
