Sorry about that, you are correct, I missed part of what you had said (trying to read the posts on my idiot-phone did not work out so well). I guess I can give the birth/death register a shot. I have done several internet searches both in the United States and in Ireland with no luck.wwattock80 wrote:I think you didn't read wot i wrote, As you said you don't know where your father is and you don't have any other proof only birth cert, so the best way is go to Birth/death Register office to know is he alive or not. you ll be able to trace his last address in Ireland to contact with social office or tax office and may be you ll find his last address in Ireland or his ties and then you ll know where is he. Maybe you will be able to established your ties with him once you him or his ties. other wise no hope.
DFA can ask you few things
Birth and marriage certificates (if applicable).
Evidence you’re entitled to Irish citizenship
Photo ID
Proof of name
Proof of address
..Remember…
Your proof of name and proof of address can’t be covered by the same document.
In my case when i was getting my son's Irish passport i supplied all the above documents of mine and my wife's too
hope this will help
I have filed a complaint with the Ombudsman. It seems to me I am being discriminated against because my parents were not married and my mother was not an Irish national.dalebutt wrote:Discretion should have been exercised, back in the days when your father was born, it is 100% certain that being born on the Island is automatic citizenship, if your birth cert has his details on it, you may seek judicial review.
