CONGRATULATIONS!realhope wrote: hello evryone
finally the good news arrived. got the approval yesterday.
Timeline
arrived in ireland 1998
applied for citizenship based on 5 years working visa sep 2009
i wish everyone who is waiting the best. and congratulations for everyone who got approved.
a quick question for people who got their naturalisation certificate.
will the name that appears on the naturalisation certificate be the same as the one on your passport. i mean can you have your middle name in the passport even though its not on your naturalisation certificate?
many thanks

It appears to me that you did not mention your middle name in the citizenship application and now you want to put that on Passport, in my opinion if you have your middle name on the Birth Cert then there should be no problem otherwise you can ask some one professional. I mentioned Birth Cert because it is compulsory to send Birth Cert with your Passport Application
Are they mad again about your grandfather name and surnames aswell, i their creterial of granting of CON aswell ?realhope wrote:thanks PikkaPIKKA wrote:CONGRATULATIONS!realhope wrote: hello evryone

thats correct. one point to mention that i have my middle name on my GNIB card. on my birth cert it gives names of me /father/grandfather
and the middle name i have on my GNIB and on my current passport is the first letter of both father and granfather
any idea what i should do?
thanks
It seems OK to me, there should be no problem at all because if there are only the first letters still they are there because of some body's name and on the Passport Application Form very first Question of Section2 'A' they are asking "Name to Appear on Passport" So, you can give your middle name there.realhope wrote:thanks Pikka

Same case I have seen on this Forum so I am going to quote his/her experienceAUCK wrote:sorry guys can any one help me with this?
It appears my current GNIB card is expired a month ago. I was unable to renew it because of my work permit still in process. But on 21.10 the citizenship division requested for the original GNIB card so that I wonder do I have to renew my GNIB card based on dependent i.e stamp 3. Or will I send my expired card which is stamp 1.
can anyone tell me do I need a valid GNIB card for the citizenship division ?
please let me know.
Stranger2Citizen wrote:My GNIB card expired on 22/06/2011.On 04/07/2011 I received the call for citizenship. the letter request me to send the 950 fee and the GNIB card before they send me the date to attend the oath ceremony.Do I have to renew the card before I send it in or could I save the 150 euro ?
Please advise
Stranger2Citizen wrote:@Alpha_1
I am writing just to update you as requested
I finally sent the expired GNIB on 6th July,after 1 week I received a phone call to attend the Citizenship Ceremony on July 28th. So I took the oath of loyalty and received my CoN on that day![]()
So I take it the expired GNIB was not an issue at that stage
*I think you are a bit confused as you can only apply Passport after taking an oath in the Ceremony; you have to send your Original Certificate of Naturalization with Passport ApplicationGreen land wrote:Quick question for all who already got their passports:
When did you get back your documents that were sent with the application form initially? Was it before the ceremony?
Can you use the same birth certificate when you apply for the passport? I suppose you have to get it back from the Dept. in order to do that.

Firstly you don't have to send your National Passport i-e Previous or dual Nationality holder (if you have Refugee Passport then return it)Green land wrote:Guys, I am a bit confused.
What should be sent to INIS after receiving the approval letter? Do we need to send original passport or not. What original travel document they are talking about in the letter?
Second thing I still dont get is after receiving the CON is it sufficient to post only the fee, 4 photos and the CON itself to obtain Irish passport? Do we need to send birth certificate or not?
Thanks a lot!
Thank you very much PIKKA, May God bless you and all of those , still in waiting game.Wish you best of luck dear.Hope to see you on the ceremony day together.PIKKA wrote:CONGRATULATIONS!
