I was joking in earlier post.....must be true if those users are saying that they are start getting naturalization approvals. I think the Dail term was over at the time, minister was on holidays thats why there was no activity since Jun-Aug. Keep your fingers crossed, post should come soon.crown wrote:Could someone please help? Who is telling the truth here?

Well, what is all this panic here about? Why is it so difficult for you all to believe that the process has started and some people have received theirs certificates of naturalization in the late week of September? And the last is complete and 100% truth! Although I do not think any Mary or John, who have kept theirs sanity, would bother to register on this forum and have any kind of activity here. People release yours fear and move on
The same Mary who twiddles her thumbs during Autumn & knits sweaters during Winters. The last approval from INIS was on the day Halley's Comet was last spotted !fatty patty wrote:Yo crown...she is definitely Mary...i am telling ya....neo725 wrote:"Has DOJ really given anybody of late - since June 2010?"

Question 294: To ask the Minister for Justice and Law Reform the average delay in the processing of applications for citizenship; the reasons for such delays; if these delays can be reduced; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [34942/10]
Dermot Ahern (Minister, Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform; Louth, Fianna Fail)
The length of time taken to process each application should not be classified as a delay, as the length of time taken for any application to be decided is purely a function of the time taken to carry out necessary checks. The average processing time from application to decision for the generality of valid applications for a certificate of naturalisation is currently 26 months and this has been maintained despite the substantial increases in the volume of applications received in recent years. This has been possible as a result of the allocation of additional resources to the division and the implementation of further refinements to procedures. The procedures employed to assess an applicant for naturalisation are summarised below.
Upon receipt, an initial examination of each application is carried out to determine if the statutory application is completed fully. Incomplete application forms are returned to the applicant for amendment. Valid applications are then examined to determine if the applicant meets the statutory residency criteria set out in the Irish Nationality and Citizenship Act. Passports and other documentation are examined in detail and enquiries with the Garda National Immigration Bureau may also be necessary.
Further processing takes place at a later stage and involves assessing an applicant’s financial status in respect of their ability to support themselves in the State. Enquiries with the Revenue Commissioners and the Department of Social and Family Affairs may be necessary in this regard. Enquiries are also made with the Garda SÃochána in order that I can be satisfied that the applicant is of good character. Depending on the complexity of any given case, these processes can take a lengthy time to complete. Once all enquiries are completed, the application is referred to me for a decision.
The Deputy will appreciate that the granting of Irish citizenship through naturalisation is an honour and applications must be processed in a way which preserves the necessary checks and balances to ensure that it is not undervalued and is given only to persons who satisfy the necessary qualifying criteria. These procedures have been developed and refined over a number of years and I am satisfied that they are necessary to maintain the integrity of the naturalisation process.

Hi there, when were you asked for additional docs & when did you send? Did you get the Social Welfare report & send it as well? Sorry for too many questions - just trying to figure out if being proactive makes any difference at all !!myimmigrationboards wrote:i applied in Nov 2007 and still waiting....
I believe being proactive makes a difference. I used to call regularly for updates before I got my approval. When I was told they are still waiting to get Social welfare reports, I obtained these myself and sent them in. I have a friend that we applied the same week(Aug 2007), I encouraged him to do the same thing without them asking for the reports first but he said he feels its unnecessary to do such. Well I got my approval March this year, he is still waiting....HOTSPURS wrote:

never asked for additional documents ., i sent them s/w letter in jan/10., when i asked for an update last time i was told that they r watting for outside agencies(i.e. garda) to report and now i am told they r watting for s/w report so i think sending a s/w letter by ourself doesnt make any difference but again their is no harm for sending it too.AShawna wrote:HOTSPURS wrote:

Sending a SW report in by yourself does help (well used to, at least). My case was exactly as AShawna. They were waiting on my SW report for along time, contacted DoSW myself got report, forwarded it to Tipperary, got my approval within a few weeks. I am suspecting that in your case they were waiting on both report for along time and since some times have passed between when you sent in your SW report and when the Garda report came in, they may want anther up-to-date SW report. It's a bit like musical chairs sometimes but sure what can we do. My advice, if you can get on to DoSW again, get an updated report if you can and forward it. You've got nothing to lose.myimmigrationboards wrote:AShawna wrote:never asked for additional documents ., i sent them s/w letter in jan/10., when i asked for an update last time i was told that they r watting for outside agencies(i.e. garda) to report and now i am told they r watting for s/w report so i think sending a s/w letter by ourself doesnt make any difference but again their is no harm for sending it too.HOTSPURS wrote:
