Next citizenship ceremony after 21st October

Post by waiting2beirish » Sat Oct 19, 2013 11:37 am

Calling all hopeful for the next citizenship ceremony after 21st October.

I believe there are many holding their breath to receive approval letters after the 21st october ceremony. I am one such... waiting for my wife's approval.

Application: April 2013 (spouse of naturalised Irish citizen, stamp 3 and 4)
First letter: Acknowledgment - May 2013
Second letter: Application in second stage- July 2013


May I suggest that we use this topic for tracking the progress up to the December 2013 ceremony. eg: receiving approval letter (when and on what bases you applied) , when did you send 950 euro photo and GNIB card, receiving invitation letter etc.

All suggestions / thoughts are welcomed.

Thanks.

I received my second acknowledgement in May 2013 and I'm not holding my breath to be honest. I'd be surprised if I got an approval before December. It took them 4 months to move my application from stage 1 to 2. Some of my friends applied after me and they will be Irish on Monday. :(

I'd rather expect nothing and be pleasantly surprised.

Hope for the best things will be moving quicker soon because there is no backlog after this ceremony only few cases from 2011 and 2012. Good Luck.

Applied on March 25th, got acknowledgement in April and got second stage letter on June 3rd. It'll be 7 months next weeks. There were people who got their approvals from Jan, Feb and March 11th even. I'm hopeful but if I don;t get anything, I would not be disappointed. Let's see

I applied in Aug 2012,

DOJ asked so many documents many times during the last year, which i supplied.

Latest letter received only a week ago, that my application is on the final stage and they do not required any further documents and i would be notified by the minsters decision in due course.

Its one year and 2 months since i applied for my naturalization....

P.S. I am holder of permanent residence card.

Any idea, how long could DOJ take more in my case ?

I agree one stops expecting anything once you see that people who applied after you are getting citizenship before you ...at that stage you loose all hope ..believe I have been through this people who applied 6 months after had got citizenship before me and I was just waiting for the postman every morning ...I just don't what this to happen in my wife's case ...just want to get her citizenship and move on . I hope now on all get their approvals in 6 months and no one has to suffer the waiting.

I applied feb 2013, and sept I got a letter looking for more documents. To me, they had all the reports back by month 7. If not for them needing clarification on an issue...They would have approved it with the sept approvals. I am not hoping with all the documents furnished...I will be part of the next approval batch & I am hoping everyone else will be part of it. I understand how heartbreaking it is when ppl that applied after you have gotten approvals.

Once you have submitted all the documentation requested , I would be confident that you will be included for the next ceremony ....hold on its the last mile.

It looks like there will be ceremony early December:

On October 9th:

"For example, next week will see the 56th, 57th and 58th citizenship ceremonies being held with a further series of ceremonies planned for early December."
