Hello All,
I might be eligible to apply for Citizenship by by naturalisation in the next 1.5 years as graduate Stamp 1G is also being counted towards reckanable residence. I checked the documents required and can see now they use point based system.
The problem I am facing is, they ask for "Current account" bank statement. I just checked mine, it is on "Graduate" account on AIB. I called AIB to check this and ask about converting it to a current account. The Agent said there is no advantage for me to move to current account now and as its in graduate account, I am still getting all the bank fee waived. He said my account might get converted to Current account automatically next year. According to the agent, my bank account was in "Student Plus" (Since I started as a masters student in Ireland )for 3-4 years and then it automatically got converted to Graduate account now.
TBH, I never really thought about my bank account till today as I checked the required documents on immigration website. I get my salary on the account, I use my cards for daily expenses etc.
Does someone have any experience on this? Should I contact immigration helpdesk to get a clarity on this as 1G has been recently showed as it count to citizenship?
Thanks
