Please don't confuse yourselves the more! When they say external agencies, they meant the Gardi, Tax office, Social Welfare etc and not any agency outside Ireland except you've declared in your application you had previous criminal offences/convictions outside the state which really has no much impact on your application. What matter most is that all you declared about yourself here in the state is correct with no complexities. So what determines the time for your application to be processed for a longer or shorter period is o what basis you're applying; Is your application based on 5 year Residency? or Marriage to an Irish Citizen? or Irish Association? More also, if you're lucky to get a case worker who's expeditious dealing with your case then you're likely to get a decision sooner than expected upon applying!
@KingdomMan : My application based on 5 year Residency ( with stamp 4) .. i have no convictions neither in Ireland nor home country ..
Hi,
I was once told that, contrary to overseas residence, if you have lived within the EU, they could (or could not) ask for reports coming from the Integrated EU Police database.
In your case, since you have previously lived in the UK, that might be the case.
Again, this is not 100% confirmed.
Hoping we all get that approval letter soon.
