I received a letter from INIS today to send photos, Green Card and prescribed fee. Applied in Jan 2008, thank God the waiting time is over!!! Wish everyone best of luck!

Surely, not 5 YEARS longer than the timeframe?!!!

Me too, applied Jan 2008!!!

Is anyone else still waiting that applied for Citizenship in 2009 ? It is so upsetting waiting so long. My husband applied in Feb 09. We just feel after waiting this long, if he is refused it will be heartbreaking. I am an Irish citizen and so are our children. :( I've been waiting since the beginn...

No problem, I understand, we are all under terrible pressure.

minniepoe, robby1,thanks so much for your support guys, it's very important to have it, especially from people who are in the same boat.

Beeline suppose u run the shop and I ask u a question that do u have this item and u said not yet but coming soon now tell me if I ask u same question several times, how u feel? In department they reply u but if u ask ur question again and again then they definitely delay ur case n u can't appeal i...

Don't annoy them, leave it alone, soon u r getting approval. About email need one week minimum to get reply back... Annoy them? The last time I had been in touch with them before this e-mail I sent last week was JULY 2011!!!, then POSTED them an updated income tax return beginning Aug 2012 since it...

Normally they reply in an hour or two or at most in a day. Try to email again. My experience on the reply is not so good as I am getting very different reply from email vs on phone. Good luck. I feel totally exhausted to do ANYTHING at all re my Application. It's been almost 5 years, I wrote, rang,...

Can you guys share your experience in getting responses from INIS via E-mails? How long does it normally take them to reply? I sent an E-mail to then last Wed and got no reply so far, is that normal?

the most time consuming stage ... I can hardly call my application processing TIME CONSUMING, it's the least that can be said about it as I applied in Jan 2008!!! The last letter I received was in Aug 2012 saying my application is with the Further Processing Team, God knows what that is! I am speec...

The DOJ should build a profile of the applicant , as long he lives here for 5 years , has a job (worked for at least a reasonable amount of time , a person cannot be blamed for loosing a job ) no major offences an interview is vital to see if the applicant is qualified to be a citizen , a good Engl...

i also cannot see why the outside agencies reports take years while we can get them in days , A week will be enough for me to go around the Garda , social and Revenue office and get letters and reports about my status . That would seem to them they you are getting your naturalization too easily + m...

robby1, blessed_sinner,eskaybee, thank you so much guys for cheering me up, will try to ring INIS and see what they say

Thanks ks2010 , I'll just hope for the better, having waited for almost 5 years since lodging my application I pray they will give me a positive decision. I think it's not fair to refuse people on the grounds they have some financial problems, I suppose there is a far better chance to get people pay...

LSR normally means Loan Status Report. Do you have any unpaid loans outstanding? Thanks for your reply, I do have loans outstanding. But I still doubt it's what you mention as in Ireland it's an Irish Credit Bureau that deals with that if I am not mistaken, of course. Since the letter was signed by...

I have received a letter that my Application is with the LSR Further Processing Team. Does anyone know what this LSR abbreviation mean? And what exactly they do there?
(I applied in 2008)
