Pakistanis and Nigerians at the top. I, for one, am shocked! :lol: II6 Latvians married Pakistanis in 2009. That seems bogey to me. According to the CSO, circa 3,500 Latvian females who are resident in the Irish state are aged betwee 15-39 .Once again, the CSO states that only 2,000 Latvian citizen...

In my opinion Irish Citizenship is like a draw but it'd not like the lotto which is nearly impossible. as long as you have ref number and DOJ confirms you have applied just wait for it and avoid trouble. Get stamp 4 or 5 at the meantime. There are thousand applying for naturalisation and only few on...

[ All they need is reports from various departments and once they have that, then they would compile them into a file and present to the minister. Reasons could be not getting the reports from departments. For example, if you have multiple addresses then it could potentially delay in the processing...

most of these immigrants are not Chinese, for the mere fact that they look like Chinese make no diference, most of them are from Tibet, Indonesia, Malaysia, Macau, Taiwan, singapore, Cambodia, kyrgyztan, Laos, Thailand, Vietnam, Burma, Korea etc. You're wrong. Of all those you've listed, PRC nation...

@@Mad, while you wait for your Cert, ask your dad to get you for original birth cert. Also write to INIS to send you your original birth cert.

Now all I need to know is what things will they look at when I come back to renew in a years time. probably your 3 months payslips and p60 proof that you have a job or...
