Hi guys
Another stupid thing came from citizenship dept. one of my mate got a letter from them mentioned that your record or character with uk is not good.clerify yourself. Is there anyone got the same kind of letter.

Did he/she say yes for character questioner on the form of have you live legally elsewhere before ?

Because Irish immigration should have nothing to do with British immigration to create a sort of lea way, and it must be 3 years or more well known to the U.k government or committed or convicted crime prosecuted infront of a judge in the U.k, because normally, they ask a question like, have you been convicted of any crime elsewhere in the world, that's a good question for Irish immigration to usurp !!!

INIS staff that, does not know the different between reminded in prison and convicted and sentence to a term of imprisonment.

Additionally, some of them lack the interpretation of suspended sentence. That's why the administrative office in Ireland need proper ''Checks and balances''.

That's why the supreme court ruled recently about how tax payers money should be spend in the recent referendum to change the text in the constitution on children s rights, so when would the INIS adopt a concept of reductions in waste and loss of our taxation in order to help the government secure a proper and equilibrium budget come december, forgetting also that, there's chronic unemployment in Ireland, otherwise applicant will not have been waiting for over 24 month for CON certificate in Ireland.

Infact i spoke to one gentle man in my area that, i have been waiting for CON for 24 month (2years) and he replied, and say that, that waiting period is too much.


Without an advocate for the poor, without a new state of mind in Ireland, the country lies on the brink of anarchy.

[Immigrant43]

Whether you grant us Irish Citizenship or not, insofar we're able to go in and out of the country, please we're here to stay, take it or you leave it, put up with that, or shut up, that's my decision, because no man is caused not to achieve their destiny in life as life is a journey, if you can juke that residency rights for 8 years, try it, pay for it and pay for their hearings.

[robby1]

Not working and being on social welfare means being real Irish at heart and soul ....and that's the reason applicants on social welfare are being given naturalization in a matter of months and people who work and pay taxes have to wait...the higher you earn the longer you wait

Some of my friends (adult applicants, 5 year residency) who applied in March 12 got their invites for Dec 13. the invites were received last week.

Minor applicant (4 year old) who applied in September 12 got his approval last week.

There is progress for sure..

Progress is only when we see our own application being approved which were made well before March 2012... there is no joy in knowing that March 2012 applicants will get naturalization in Dec 2012 and we ourselves who have applied in 2010 and 2011 are just waiting

My guess is that the March 2012 applicant was a straight foreword case as perhaps he was on Social Welfare and was not a complicated case as the cases where the applicant is working and paying taxes...

Well done to everyone how cheated the system and got his application approved.....we will keep working hard to pay your social welfare....

The trick is once you hear the answering machine voice, cut the call and re-dial immediately.

Note: It take 80-100 tries and eventually the call goes through

That is very true...if they give naturalization to people who are working and paying taxes and PRSI these qualified people will just leave ireland and go away the moment they get Irish passport... then how will the Irish government get money to pay social welfare to the Irish and the ones they are giving citizenship who are on social welfare

I can understand the bitter feeling many of us have. That doesn't justify the unreasonable comments.

For your info, the adult applicants that I mentioned are all working in IT and Medical areas and are paying taxes like many of us here do. And as far as I know, none of them have any plans to run away as soon as they take the oath. So please don't generalize.

The reason for me updating the latest info is not to make you feel bad. i don't gain a thing by doing that. It is to let people know the progress.

Good luck everyone.

I just wanted to add my 2 cents...........................This argument about people claiming welfare and those on work permit is not helpful at all. Yes, some people claiming welfare might be Refugees for whom claiming does not affect them adversely. We should speak with one voice. Let us unite!
