I've applied a year and a half ago and still didn't get approval, so I'm afraid your situation is the norm. Also don't post in timelines, please.rajqo wrote: ↑Mon May 15, 2023 5:11 pmThere are at least 2 applicants now who applied later and received approval already. I have applied 1 day before (16.1) and haven't even got the e-vetting link yet. Also applied based on 5 years residence - eu citizen. So far absolutely no contact from their side. Frustrating

People need to raise this with their TD's, The Minister and the media!
Outrageous! Something very fishy going on!

Political people focus on mass people issues but not 1-10 cases in each town. Definitely they can/will listen problem and issue but there is no guaranty that they will raise this issue in Parliament and when they will raise nobody knows.Palantir wrote: ↑Tue May 16, 2023 11:08 amSocial media is fine, but the only thing that will really change things is, if people put political pressure and söme form lf accountability.
Wouldn't be surprised if they are fast tracking 2023 applications to quickly bring down the median waiting time, or so the Dept and/or Minister can sneakily say average waiting times for 2023 applications is X amount (by current data, about four or so months!) Either way, 2021 and 2022 applicants are being completely screwed and should be rightly livid!

I totally agree ISD is currently focusing on bring down the median waiting time based on 2023 applications which is totally unethical and Paint the Picture according to own.
My wife applied in September 2021 and there is no evetting invitationsuzanne167 wrote: ↑Wed May 17, 2023 9:02 pmHi there! I just want to ask if there is anyone who applied in June 2021 - September 2021 and who never received e-vetting invitation.
We applied from Feb 2020. Eventually threatened judicial review in late January. That got the ball rolling. We got a response roughly two weeks after that.
Alright, might be the way to do it. Maybe my case isn't straightforward and that's why it takes time. After I made redundant for a few months I was on a job seekers benefit, could it be the reason why it's delayed?suzanne167 wrote: ↑Wed May 24, 2023 10:16 amHi dubadub, have you tried to make an FOI request or contact your local TD? I applied in June 2021, got acknowledgement on November 2021, and heard nothing from them afterwards. I sent several emails asking about the current status but got no response at all. I emailed my local TD asking about assistance, and she asked them about my application status. A couple of weeks after, I finally got an e-vetting invitation. Having said my case is straightforward, no absence in the country longer than 6 weeks, etc.
can I ask when he got his approval/ paid?luxurylemon wrote: ↑Wed May 24, 2023 1:17 pmHusband just received an email today around 2pm from citizenship confirming his payment (from the 15th) of 950 has been processed today. Hopefully that means he will be invited to the ceremony.
