I think in your apolication some problem.when did u get 2 nd stage letter.otherwise which email u sent them its mean take time.
I have seen people travelling with approval letters and valid visa. This was around one year back. I hope it would be the same if you travel now too. You can explain your circumstances that made necessary for you to travel before the ceremony.Cork121 wrote:Hi Every one,

You don't need to send your current/old passport for getting Irish passport (for first time for new Irish citizens). Current processing time for Irish passport is average 12 days.jumanufer wrote:After the ceremony, I understand that in order to get the irish passport we need to send out passport along with other documentation (birth certificate, etc). does anyone know how long would take to get the Irish passport, or at least to get back the passport we have to send to them?
is it feasible to only send a certified copy of the passport?

The paperwork I got at the ceremony in December said to send in your passport with the Irish passport application. It specifically says to send in the passport from your country of origin, and a photocopy is not acceptable. To give an idea of timeline, I sent my application on Jan. 22, and received my Irish passport and all other documents today.You don't need to send your current/old passport for getting Irish passport (for first time for new Irish citizens).

You are right. The information that I gave was what I did 2 years ago. I didn't realise that changes could have happened within 2 years . Anyway good to know the current information from you.jumanufer wrote:mCGIW wrote:You don't need to send your current/old passport for getting Irish passport (for first time for new Irish citizens).

Thanks a lot. I found this information in the web site:
Citizenship through naturalisation - you should include:
•Your naturalisation certificate
•Your foreign passport
•Your birth certificate
•Your civil marriage or civil partnership certificate (if you have changed your surname)
If your documents are not in English you must also supply a certified English version, translated by a registered translator. You may also be required to provide further information and/or attend for interview.
Is it not correct the foreign passport part?
Also in relation with the birth certificate, my wife has it in Spanish with the Aspotile as well as the official translation (in Argentina) certified etc. According to this, she will need to get it translated again but here in Ireland with a certified translator?
Does anyone has experienced this? or this is just for a worse case scenario?
For me it does not make sense since we have already provided the birth certificate for naturalisation, so how it comes that they do accept it for naturalisation but not for passport issue?
