again, in simple words:
• If you are an E.U. citizen for more than five years please submit proof of residence in the State amounting to for a total of five years in the last nine years, to include the year prior to application. Please submit three different proofs of
residence for each year showing name and address for this period. **
• If you are an E.U. citizen for less than five years please submit copy of your passport showing permission to remain stamps from date of arrival in the State to date of becoming an E.U. citizen and proof of residence in the State from date of becoming an E.U. citizen to date of application. Please submit three different proofs of residence for each year showing name and address for this period. **
** Acceptable proofs can be any of the following: utility bills
(Gas/landline telephone/electricity), Revenue documentation, Social Welfare documentation,
employment letter showing your name and address, payslips showing your name and address, mortgage agreement, tenancy agreement, PRTB letter, Doctor’s letter showing date of registration, which must specify dates of attendance, bank statements, which must show day to day living transactions e.g. laser transactions in supermarket, lodgement in local bank etc. The proofs must show your name and address. When more than one proof of residence is requested you must submit different proofs e.g. 1 electricity bill, 1 bank statement and 1 Revenue document. Proofs should contain at least 1 utility bill for each year.
Bundle of thanks for spending time to provide information ,
i am little bit confused here u said that requirment is to must live 185 days in each year which is some what more than 6 months mean almost 5 months out of the ireland will not be a problem . but i read some post here in which people are concerned with the new citizen application form 8 which is asking you to mention any absence which is more than 6 WEEKS and also that only 6 WEEKS of absence is tolerateable .
My question is does 6 WEEKS absence rule only apply for NON EU immigrants while EU citizen are required to to stay of minimum 185 days per year.
After 5 years direct naturalization application can be made or first need to apply for Any sort of Permanent residency and than after elapse of some time on Permanent residency Naturalization application can be done like in U.K after one year of Indefinate leave naturalization application can be made .?
Is there any Different application FORM of naturalization for British/EU nationals or every one has to use FORM 8 the new one ?.
Thanks
looking forward for your valued advise
