Applying for Newborn Passport (Born in Ireland to Non Eu Parents)

[thatroger]

Hi,

I want to apply for a passport for my newborn. My question is, can I send my spouse's documents instead of my own? She has been on Stamp 1G for the last 4 years, while I have been on Stamp 4 for 7 years. The reason I don't want to send my own documents is that I am in the last stage of the citizenship process. If citizenship dept request documents like the original IRP or passport, it will be very tricky for me to get them from passport office as they return documents only when they issue passport for printing.

So, my question is, would it be okay if I send my wife's documents, such as her passport (which has stamps for the last 4 years) and her IRP?

Yes.

One of your parents must have:

Lived in Ireland or Northern Ireland for 3 out of the 4 years before you were born

If citizenship dept request documents like the original IRP or passport,

They won't - your documents were verified at the first stage. You'll need your ID for ceremony (which could be tricky if you're invited to one in June), but I think they accept driving licenses.

Thanks Meself2.

I probably will send my spouse's documents.
