I recently got my approval letter.
Applied June '06.
Sent additional docs late '08.
Was with minister for exactly 6 weeks.
I don't have regular access to the internet these days so it's not that I'm ignoring people if I don't reply.
Good luck to all still waiting.

I agree. I don't know whether it breaks any laws, but at first glance it certainly does appear to discriminate.nanette wrote:Maybe not the right place to put this....have you noticed?
Most of the people I know who got their passport are a bit frustrated because in their passport the place of birth is replaced with the country code rather than actually writing the country name.
For Example:
Place of Birth: Cork, Ireland (irish passport for irish born)
Place of Birth: COL (irish passport for columbia)
Place of Birth: DNK (irish passport for Danemark)
This could be **discriminatory** when you are traveling....I would rather have my place of birth written in plain english like the french, british do.
It should be changed. It does not seem right...
Just a thought.

Discriminatory implies prejudice, as all countries have their own three letter abbreviation how can this be prejudicial?
Mine for instance is ZAF for South Africa, perfectly acceptable.
The ISO standard abbreviations can be seen here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-3
Because somebody born in Waterford does not have their place of birth as "WAT". Similarly, someone born in Dublin does not have "DUB" in their passport. If such abreviations were used, then no, there would be no discrimination.Lost Soul wrote:In what way is abbreviating your country of birth into an internationally standardised three letter form in any way discriminatory?
