it has just changed couple of min ago to approved!!! happy but still eagerly waiting for the passport to come in by post. hope it comes in tomorrow, or else, my plan is screwed for travelling this WE!

we applied on sat 5th july, it was received and registered on Tues 8th of july. today, 31 july it says "being checked", this is now exactly 18 working days, i wanted my passport badly this WE for travel, im very disappointed that it says 15 working days as the max wait time, and i haven't ...

once I got the approval letter, I had to send the postal order one for 600 euro then the other for 350 euro as they cannot put one amount per post order. 2 passport photos (coloured ones) plus your GNIB card if applicable, they also mention your original travel document but make sure you dont send ...

hi there, does anyone know the schedule for the ceremony day? so my time is at 8:40am, but when will the ceremony for that start, and when does it end, just want to know the details, so that i can plan properly, as we don't live near Dublin, but we come from Galway (2.5 hrs drive), and i have my job...

usually the ceremonies are held on Mondays, or if there is a bank holiday, it would then be on Tuesday. This conclusion is by looking at previous ceremony dates. On the convention center website "http://www.theccd.ie/upcoming-events" , the unreserved days for the upcoming weeks are as foll...

Thanks but a bit too late,
i used
http://www.certifiedtranslations.ie/ale ... act#galwey
http://www.document-translations.co.uk/

for €28.

just to add. My birth cert translation was done in my home country, and i have used it in many places before, including the naturalization documentation, and it had no problems, im not sure why all of a sudden they cannot verify it!

@CalvinKlien It says, they have been unable to verify the translation company used to translate my birth cert. and they need me to provide an english translation from a certified translation service in ireland. Does anyone know how to go about this? any good translation company i can use? preferably...

Status: Application received on 14/02/2014 and is being checked.
Issue Date: 10/02/2014


ur right, these statuses is confusing , as it was written earlier that my application was received on Jan 28.

hi guys , any update... nothing in for me yet, 13 working days passed, same status on internet.

"Received on 28/01/2014 and has been registered."

im in same boat, 9 working days gone, same status, let us know any updates.

Thanks Calvin, I dont understand why they put the question there on form 9 if kids dont have GNIB numbers.
I have left it as N/A . Well see how it goes!

noone has any ideas on the above?

I've been searching for the "person identity number" for my child to apply for natrulisation. Can you please help me out, how do i get this number? Is it same a my wife's Person identity number that is on her GNIB card?

thanks in advance.

@ calvin, thanks for the tip.

I know only 1 adult is permitted with the applicant. What about children? i have one 3 yr old daughter, i can't leave her .. Do you think it would be okay with them to enter?

hi guys, what is the duration of the ceremony? just want to know for parking outside.
