I received the same answer from INIS they are waiting for my Garda report since I was born but still not get it. I was told that I would get my decision in couple of months. I applied in July 2008 but they put me in August Queue. She said they are clearing 2007 and 2008 applications at the moment.....

Yes, this is ridiculous. I don't mind if it takes 2 months. But just tell the truth and give us an indication of what's happening. The feeling of waiting is terrible from one side Mr Shatter wants to speed up the naturalisation process to six months and from another side it takes about 5 months to ...
