I should be getting my CON sometime coming month or two because I just got my approval letter last week. I read the requirement to apply for Irish passport in Department of Foriegn affair website as following:
http://www.dfa.ie/home/index.aspx?id=84782
******With a view to preventing identity theft and the circulation of falsified passports, additional safeguards are being introduced into the passport application procedure for adult first time applicants and for those adults seeking to replace a lost/stolen passport. With effect from 17 January 2011, adult applicants in these categories will be required to submit the following additional evidence in support of their passport application:
a completed and suitably witnessed passport application form and four photographs, two of which must be signed and stamped by an approved witness; and
the long form birth certificate of the applicant and a civil marriage certificate, if appropriate, and evidence of entitlement to Irish citizenship ,where applicable;
additional form of photo-identification; e.g. drivers licence, work ID; student card; social club membership; passport from other country etc.;
documentary evidence to show use of name, e.g. payslips; records of unemployment or disability payment; bank statement; college registration etc.;
evidence of residency at the application address, e.g. utility bills; official correspondence from public or private sector etc.
The above-mentioned should be submitted in original format.
In addition, applicants may also be required to provide further information and/or attend for interview at one of the Department’s offices. **********
It said "The above-mentioned should be submitted in original format". Does it mean that I have to give them my actual CON when I am applying in the post office or they will make a photocopy of my CON before the Anpost send off my application? Also, my original birth certificate is not in English and I had it translated into English and gave the official translated copy to INIS 4 years ago when I was applying for Naturalisation. I only had a scanned copy of official translated copy. Will the passport office accept a printout of it? Anyone has any idea? Thankx

u will need to submit original CON and anpost will not take photocopy of it..
i also did not have my original translation but my printout for scanned copy was not accepted as it was rejected because it did not look original.
I eventually forwarded the original email from translation company to passport office while talking on phone to the lady who had sent me letter for this issue.
cheers

GOOD LUCK
