When were you asked by DoJ to send the supporting documents - P21 etc? The approval is at least 6 months from when you send those docs.

Also did your 5 yr residency was clean? I mean were you on working visa/permit etc continuously for full 5 years OR was there some employment break / mix of periods with unemployment/student visa etc.

To be honest, sitting and waiting won't take you anywhere. It's nearly 3.5 years. Speak to your local TD. Write repeated reminders to DoJ for clarifications. You should have got the red book by now.

Hi all,

I've applied early August 2005 and I haven't heard from them at all.

Maybe a silly question, but just to be on the safe side ... Mendo and Last Man Standing: Did you change address? Did you write to DoJ updating your new address?

After reading the Parliamentary Questions, it looks like some people just forget to keep DoJ up to date with their addresses and the DoJ cannot reach them.

No I haven't changed address, they've told me to wait after I've sent them a letter few weeks ago, asking for a update.

@mendo and last man standing
- I know of at least one person who had applied in aug 2005 and who got his letter of approval about 3 weeks back, so I guess you should be hearing from DoJ soon regarding this matter. He had applied on the same basis as you--living and working in Ireland on a full-time job for 5 yrs.

The approval is at least 6 months from when you are asked to send those docs. In your case, you actually recd the request from DoJ quite late.
Probably your file is retained in Dublin office who are not as fast/efficient as Tiperrary counterpart.

yes that seem to be the case i.e. 6 months wait after they ask for documents .

Got approval in this morning's post.
No further docs were asked for.
Court appointment in 2 weeks, not in Dublin.

Good bye and good luck to all.

Wow congratulations on your good news.

Did you apply in June 06?

Funny enough I've applied in May but haven't got anything yet apart from request for further documents! It kind of reinforces my theory that processing time might depend on the original nationality!

Congrats bloody foreigner. Now you are bloody Irish

. Take a day off
and enjoy.

When did you apply originally? I assume you were never asked to send additional documents. About ashimashi's comments - if you don't mind, what nationality are you guys. How can it make a difference??

ashimashi · Post by **ashimashi** » Fri Oct 31, 2008 9:44 am

Iranian here, not the most favourite in the world nowadays. They may run more checks on some nationalities for example.

Funny enough I'm even married to an Irish person and it's not making any difference...

BF applied on June 2006. See page 20 of this thread.

Hi all,

Anyone else applied on July ?

Lost Soul · Post by **Lost Soul** » Sun Nov 02, 2008 7:56 pm

Hello

I applied for naturalisation in June 2006.

I have heard nothing since. I phoned on Thursday and eventually got through.

I was told that all they could tell me was that my application was with the minister.

Any idea what this might mean. No requests for any information were made.

ib_dublin · Post by **ib_dublin** » Mon Nov 03, 2008 10:18 am

I have applied on Aug-2006. Asked for docs in Oct-2008.
Any idea when should I expect minister's approval

thanks in anticipation

Hi Ib,

I'm the same. I have no idea how long more it might take. I'm guessing between 4 and 6 months however in some cases it looks a lot shorter as you can see from some postings here in this board... let's keep in touch and update eachother and the board please.

Kind Regards,
AI
