Great news. After over 4+ (applied April 2009) very long years of waiting, my husband finally received the decision. He has been granted Irish Citizenship. :) The relief and happiness is overwhelming. Letter received August 7th 2013. Thank you to IntegratedMigrant and others on this forum for your s...
Finally a step forward with my husbands application. We got a letter two weeks ago requesting proof of residence for the last 3 years. We sent back the necessary documents and we got a letter back stating documents received. So we are hoping it is closer to the end and we will receive good news soon...

My husband applied in April 2009 (married to me (Irish Citizen), still waiting. Same excuse, still processing etc. etc.. every time we contact them. There is a visa issue which has added to the delay in the application but still no excuse that we are waiting 4 very long years.

[quote="weeno"]Hi guys, received a letter from further processing team about 3 weeks ago, anybody knows how long I have to wait more applied in dec 2011. Thanks --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Your application for naturalisation is cu...
[quote="hopeforalife"]I am literally nearing the edge of insanity after waiting 10months now (a total of about 3-4years if you counted in my 2 previous application). My life has been stopped because of this ridiculous processing time and i'd do anything to get it back but there is no other...
We got the same response by email from INIS back in March 2012.. I emailed them today and again the same response. Exact same wording again.

[quote="EUsmileWEallsmile"][quote="Directive/2004/38/EC"]Am I correct on the following: (1) On arrival to the UK, the non-EU citizen did not have an EEA Family Permit and was not travelling with the EEA citizen (2) The EEA citizen was planning to arrive in the UK the next day. Di...
[quote="EUsmileWEallsmile"]I would not jump to conclusions and presume that it has been refused. You do know, however, that the entry to the UK should not have been automatically refused.[/quote] Yes thank you so much for clarifying this. We will just keep hoping he gets approval soon. I h...
If you were married and your non-EU spouse tried to join you, the entry could have been permitted. It is important that you understand your rights. Are they clear to you?[/quote] Yes thank you so much for all this information. I never heard of this directive before now. Our application was submitted...
Reading your earlier post, I understand that you travelled together to the UK as a married couple in 2007 (with an exired visa). [b]I had arrived in London the day before my husband did. We did not travel to the UK together. He tried to join us a day later. We had return flights to travel back to Ir...
Thank you all for your replies. Yes we are married since 2003 so we were married at the time. We had return flights together to Ireland but he was still refused entry. I will never forget the heartbreak it caused at the time. His UK entry visa was out of date at the time which was an oversight on ou...
Thank you for your reply. He has no offense. The only situation that might cause worry is in 2007 we went to my sisters wedding in the UK, he was stopped in emigration and was not allowed entry as he did not have the correct visa to enter uk for short stay. He was held overnight and returned to Irel...
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.
